Abstrakt: Epithlelioid angiosarcoma (EA) is a rare high grade malignant neoplasm arising from vascular endothelium. Amongst epithelioid endothelial cell tumors, EA is rare to occur. It is characterized by atypical, multilayered or solid endothelial proliferation and vasoformative architecture is a major finding in EA. This tumor exhibits a great degree of nuclear pleomorphism and mitotic activity with areas of necrosis. A case report of Primary Epithlelioid Angiosarcoma of the Maxilla in a 13 year old male patient is being reported. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
