FERNANDEZ GARCIA-GUILARTE, R.; ENRIQUEZ DE SALAMANCA CELADA, J.  y  COMENERO, I.. Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2009, vol.35, n.2, pp.155-158. ISSN 1989-2055.

The intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (PEH), also known as hémangioendothéliome végétant intra-vasculaire or Masson's pseudoangiosarcoma, is an unusual benign, non-neoplastic, vascular lesion, with rare non-neoplasic reactive endothelial proliferation most commonly located in the skin or subcutaneous tissues. It is important to remark the features that can distinguish this entity from other neoplasms to avoid inappropriate treatment. Pathological characteristics that distinguish PEH from angiosarcoma could be reduced to circumscription of the lesion, location in a vessel or association with thrombus and papillary architecture without significant cytologic atypia or areas of solid growth. Treatment consists of complete resection of the tumor, including wide enough margins to avoid recurrence.
