Abstract
Hepatic angiosarcoma (HAS) is an extremely rare liver tumor in children. We report a case of childhood HAS in a six year old girl who presented with acute abdominal pain and fever with a mass in epigastrium. Left hepatic lobectomy was performed with a clinical diagnosis of hepatoblastoma. Histopathological examination revealed features typical of hepatic angiosarcoma. The case is presented for its rarity and to discuss the interrelation between infantile hemangioendothelioma (IHE) and HAS.
