Multifocal Epithelioid Hemangioma With FOSB Overexpression

Journal of Cutaneous Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epithelioid hemangioma (EH) is a benign vascular tumor that most commonly arises on the skin but may also occur in other anatomical locations, including deep soft tissue, bone, visceral organs, penis, and mucosal sites. A hallmark of EH is overexpression of FOS and FOSB, often resulting from various gene fusions.
