Abstract:
Masson’s tumor, also known as intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH), is a rare, benign vascular tumor characterized by the proliferation of endothelial cells with papillary formations. Differential diagnosis between IPEH and angiosarcoma is important because both have microscopic similarity. Herein, we report a rare case of IPEH on the right lateral neck of a 50-year-old female presenting with a neck mass, which was completely removed without complication.
