Malignant hemangioendothelioma (angiosarcoma) of the skull: plain film, CT, and MR appearance.

We present a case of grade III malignant hemangioendothelioma (also known as angiosarcoma) of the skull in a 13-year-old boy and describe the plain film, CT, and MR appearance of this neoplasm as well as its histopathology.
