A vascular tissue neoplasm is a tumor arising from endothelial cells,[1] They can be benign or malignant, and they occur everywhere in the body where vessels are to be found.
Classification
Vasular tissue neoplasms are classified according to the type of vessels they are related to: blood vessels, lymphatics, or both. Further classification depends on their microscopic features, including presence or absence of characteristics of malignancy, and the clinical syndromes they produce.
