Abstract
Hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (HEH) is an extremely rare tumor of vascular origin. The disease can manifest itself in several symptoms and can be diagnosed by ultrasound, CT scan and MRI. Hepatic capsular retractions due to extensive fibrosis can be identified by CT and MRI. There is no consensus on the treatment of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma, which ranges from liver resection, hepatectomy, liver transplantation. This case report presents a 45-year-old woman who presented with hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma diagnosed after the onset of jaundice.
