ABSTRACT

Hemangiopericytoma is a rare soft tissue tumor that originates from pericytes covering the vascular intima. It often occurs postoperatively as local recurrence and metastasis. A 47-year-old male was admitted to our hospital for an examination of a right lung mass following surgery for cerebellar hemangiopericytoma. A bronchofiberscopy was unrevealing. Percutaneous lung biopsy revealed metastatic hemangiopericytoma. Temozolomide chemotherapy was commenced, but he died after eight days of treatment. We herein report the present rare case in detail.
