Zusammenfassung: | Epithelioid angiosarcoma is a rare malignant vascular neoplasm with potential diagnostic trap of mistaking these tumors for poorly differentiated carcinoma, malignant melanoma, or mesenchymal tumor. Here we are reporting a case of soft tissue neoplasm of the head with local infiltration into the underlying bone.
