Özet

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is a rare vascular tumor mostly seen in liver, lung, and bone. Involvement of the adrenal gland has not been reported previously. Here, we report the first case of adrenal malignant epithelioid hemangioendothelioma in an 81-year-old man who was successfully treated by laparoscopic excision. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc.
