Hemangioendotheliomas are vascular tumors of intermediate malignancy considered as low-grade angiosarcomas. The authors report two cases of a distinctive type, named retiform hemangioendothelioma because of its particular morphologic features, and recently delineated by Calonje and al. This tumor of the skin recurs frequently but has a very low metastatic rate.
