Resumen

El hemangioendotelioma epiteloide es un tumor de origen endotelial de malignidad intermedia entre el hemangioma y el angiosarcoma. Suele afectar principalmente a partes blandas aunque también se ha descrito en otras localizaciones como pulmón, hígado, ganglios linfáticos y hueso. Esta última localización es poco frecuente constituyendo menos del 1% de los tumores óseos y dentro del esqueleto, el cráneo constituye una localización excepcional.

Presentamos el caso de un varón joven con un hemangioendotelioma epiteliode óseo de localización frontoorbitaria.

Palabras clave:
