Abstract
Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH) has appeared in the literature under a variety of names, including Masson's tumor, Masson's hemangioma, and Masson's pseudoangiosarcoma. It is a benign lesion of the skin and subcutaneous tissue characterized by reactive proliferation of vascular endothelial cells with papillary formations. The clinical picture is not specific and the lesion resembles malignant angiosarcoma clinically and histopathologically. Therefore, it is often mistaken for angiosarcoma and a group of other benign and malignant vascular lesions. We report on a case of IPEH adherent to peripheral nerve treated with operative excision.
