Abstract
This case report describes a malignant endothelial vascular tumor originating in the superficial femoral artery with distal embolization and formation of metastases in bones and soft tissue of the foot and lower leg. Clinically the case was considered to be microembolism of the foot. Diagnosis was established by biopsy of a cutaneous necrotic lesion in the lateral foot region. The histologic picture of the cutaneous and subcutaneous metastases is similar to that of systemic proliferating angioendotheliomatosis. Fallbericht über einen vom Intimaendothel der Arteria femoralis superficialis ausgehenden malignen Tumor mit Embolisation von Tumorgewebe in die Peripherie und Metastasenbildung in den Weichteilen und Knochen des distalen Extremitätenbereichs. Klinisch lief der Fall als rezidivierende Mikroembolie, bis sich die Diagnose aus der Probebiopsie einer Hautnekrose am Fuß ergab. Auf die Ähnlichkeit der Histologie der Metastasen in der Haut/Subkutis mit der Angioendotheliomatosis proliferans systematisata wird hingewiesen.Keywords
