Spindle cell hemangioendothelioma (SCH) can present as multiple lesions, sometimes mimicking Maffucci's syndrome. Histologic findings suggest SCH may be a reactive process, favoring the term hemangioma.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Pathology
  • Vascular Anomalies

Background:

  • Spindle cell hemangioendothelioma (SCH) is a vascular tumor.
  • Clinical presentation varies, including solitary or multiple lesions.

Observation:

  • A 27-year-old woman presented with multiple, childhood-onset nodules on her right upper extremity.
  • Histologic examination revealed features of SCH and sinusoidal hemangioma.

Findings:

  • Multiple SCH lesions raise suspicion for Maffucci's syndrome.
  • SCH may represent a reactive process secondary to thrombosis and recanalization.
  • The term hemangioma may be more appropriate than hemangioendothelioma for this entity.

Implications:

  • Accurate classification of vascular lesions is crucial for diagnosis and management.
  • Understanding the reactive nature of SCH could refine treatment strategies.
  • Further research into the pathogenesis of SCH is warranted.
