[Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of penis].
A case of EH of the penis in a sixtyfour-year-old patient is described. This is a rare--in this location--vascular tumor of borderline malignant potential between hemangioma and angiosarcoma. Local excision of the tumor with a cut-off of normal tissue and careful follow-up of the patient is the accepted procedure. Immunohistochemistry is essential for the diagnosis.
