Abstract
A case of pathologic multifocal epithelioid hemangioma which occurred in the perigestational period is reported. This is the only reported case in which an epithelioid hemangioma, without treatment, went into radiographic and clinical remission. This case may suggest an alternative treatment for epithelioid hemangioma. Rather than radiation therapy or amputation, close observation of this benign neoplasm may be indicated.
