Malignant angioendotheliomatosis. Reclassification as an angiotropic lymphoma
Abstract
A 70-year-old woman with chronic edema of the lower limbs was diagnosed as having a "malignant angio-endotheliomatosis," because histologic examination showed a strict intravascular location of a malignant proliferation. Immunochemical studies actually disclosed the lymphomatous origin of malignant cells. The recent literature regarding the nosology of this rare condition is reviewed.
