Abstract

This is a case of a young woman with a low grade malignant hemangioendothelioma of bone, who is considered cured after more than 8 years of follow-up post radiotherapy. This patient demonstrates that, despite the characteristic multifocality of this rare tumor, treatment with radiotherapy alone can be curative.
