Spindle Cell Hemangioendothelioma of the Temporal Muscle Resected with Zygomatic Osteotomy: A Case Report of an Unusual Intramuscular Lesion Mimicking Sarcoma

Figure 5

Microscopic findings of the spindle cell hemangioendothelioma. (a) Low-power view of the lesion showing cavernous blood vessels filled partly or completely with erythrocytes or thrombus admixed with cellular zones (hematoxylin-eosin, original magnification ×40). (b) High-power view of juxtaposition of the cavernous and cellular areas illustrating blood-filled dilated vessels lined by flattened endothelial cells and spindle-shaped cellular components. There is no evidence of abnormal mitotic activity or nuclear atypia in spindled cells (hematoxylin-eosin, original magnification ×100).
