Abstract:
Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH) is a benign vascular proliferative process characterized by proliferation of endothelial cells with papillary formation located within a vascular lumen. It could manifest as a primary or pure form that develops in a distended vessel or it could be associated with hemangiomas, pyogenic granulomas, and/or lymphangiomas. We report a case showing development of intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia on a patient's right fifth finger.
