Kaposiform hemangioendothelioma (KHE) is a rare and invasive vascular tumor that mainly occurs in children and is rarely seen in adults. We report a case of KHE found on the eyelid of an adult patient.
We present an adult patient in whom KHE recurred 6 months after tumor resection. He underwent second surgical resection and intraoperative chemotherapy. There was no evidence of recurrence at the 3-year follow-up.
KHE in adults is easy to be misdiagnosed. KHE can be treated by surgical resection. Complete resection of the tumor and intraoperative chemotherapy may help prevent a recurrence.
卡波西样血管内皮瘤(KHE)是一种罕见的侵袭性血管肿瘤,主要发生于儿童,在成人中罕见。我们报告一例发生于成年患者眼睑的KHE病例。
我们介绍一名成年患者,其KHE在肿瘤切除术后6个月复发。他接受了二次手术切除及术中化疗。3年随访时无复发迹象。
成人KHE容易被误诊。KHE可通过手术切除治疗。肿瘤的完整切除及术中化疗可能有助于预防复发。
