Epitheloid hemangioendothelioma of the ulnar artery presenting with neuropathy
We present a rare case of epithelioid hemangioendothelioma arising from the wall of ulnar artery in distal forearm. The presentation was interesting in a 34-year-old man, with progressively worsening symptoms of ulnar neuropathy. A mass was seen arising from the ulnar artery on imaging with ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Soft tissue epithelioid hemangioendothelioma in extremities almost always arise from the veins. Existing literature do not have elaborated imaging findings of epithelioid hemangioendothelioma arising from the arterial wall.
