Abstract
Hemangiopericytoma is a rare vascular tumor derived from the pericyte and usually occures in the lower extremities and the retroperitoneum. Complete excision is treatment of choice. Regular follow up is strongly recommended due to its potential malignancy which is recurrence and metastasis. We experienced surgical excision of metastatic pulmonary hemangiopericytoma from retroperitoneal hemangiopericytoma completely excised 10 years ago.
