Pulmonary epithelioid hemangioendothelioma with complete response after neoadjuvant therapy

Patient Info: Anonymized, Male, 60s

Biomarkers: WWTR1-CAMTA1 fusion; vascular markers supported epithelioid hemangioendothelioma; lung cancer markers were absent.

The patient achieved radiographic disappearance of the lung tumor after neoadjuvant paclitaxel/carboplatin plus bevacizumab. Surgery then showed no residual tumor and lymph nodes were negative; CT follow-up through April 2024 showed no recurrence.
