title: Masson's vegetant hemangioendothelioma: case report and literature review.
abstract: Masson's vegetant intravascular hemangioendothelioma has only been reported intracranially in 12 patients. The pathological diagnosis is important given its benign natural history. We report the 13th case in a woman who presented with headaches and dysphasia. A thorough literature review is presented and an appropriate management strategy is proposed.
