Abstract
A case of a rare epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) with multifocal location in a 32 year-old male is reported. The patient presented to our hospital with a knee pain. After thorough investigations and establishing the diagnosis, surgical treatment was done. This tumor involves bones of the axial skeleton and long tubular bones. EHE is usually multifocal in more than 50% of the cases. The management of a bone and liver location was exposed in this case report.
