Abstract:
In this article, we describe a case of conventional epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) arising within an extra-adrenal myelolipoma. This composite neoplasm arose in the mediastinum of a 51-year-old female. The tumor was composed of a large myelolipoma that contained nodules of EHE consisting of CD31-positive epithelioid endothelial cells that grew in solid cords and were enmeshed in a basophilic hyalinized stroma. Both EHE and myelolipoma are characterized genetically by alterations of WWTR1. We demonstrated the expression of CAMTA-1 chimeric protein by immunohistochemistry both in the neoplastic endothelial cells of EHE and some of the endothelial cells lining the blood vessels in the myelolipoma. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a malignant vascular neoplasm arising in association with myelolipoma.

Classifying Matter by Composition
According to its composition, the matter can be classified into two broad categories — pure substances and mixtures.
A pure substance is a form of matter that has a constant composition throughout with uniform properties. For example, any sample of sucrose has the same composition and same physical properties, such as melting point, color, and sweetness, regardless of the source from which it is isolated.
A mixture is composed of two or...
