[Systemic hemangioendotheliomatosis].

A rarely occuring systemic hemangioendotheliomatosis with the involvement of the skin, lymph nodes, spleen, liver, bone marrow, and lungs (intra- and extra-vascular endothelial proliferation) in a female patient of 53 years is described. Cytostatic therapy resulted in short-time improvement and was accompanied by disappearance and cicatrization of tumour nodes and marked lymphoplasmocytic reaction. The patient died with signs of cachexia, anemia and leukopenia because of concurrent complications.
