Abstract:
A case is reported in which an unsuspected multifocal malignant hemangioendothelioma indirectly caused the sudden, unexpected death of a 5-month-old girl because of its location. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of sudden, unexpected death associated with this type of tumor. The findings of this unusual case are presented along with a review of relevant literature.
