| Abstract (English): |
Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia, also known as Masson's tumor, is a rare benign vascular condition that has a predilection for occurring in the head and neck region. Unusual presentations have been described in bone, ocular, and central nervous system sites. The clinical and imaging findings are nonspecific, so the diagnosis is based on histopathological evaluation, studying its histological and immunohistochemical characteristics. The differential diagnosis includes benign and malignant entities due to their histological similarities, with special attention to ruling out osteosarcoma and Kaposi's sarcoma due to their aggressive behavior.

| Abstract (Spanish): |
La hiperplasia endotelial papilar intravascular, también conocido como tumor de Masson, es una patología benigna poco común, que tiene predilección por la aparición en la región de la cabeza y el cuello. Se han descrito presentaciones inusuales en regiones óseas, oculares y en el sistema nervioso central. La clínica e imágenes diagnósticas son inespecíficas, por lo cual el diagnóstico se realiza con métodos histopatológicos, estudiando sus características histológicas e inmunohistoquímicas. El diagnóstico diferencial abarca entidades benignas y malignas debido a sus similitudes histológicas, en especial atención a descartar osteosarcoma y sarcoma de Kaposi por su comportamiento agresivo.
