Patients Powering Research for EHE

The EHE Global Patient Registry empowers people with Epithelioid Hemangioendothelioma (EHE) to join together to improve our understanding of this ultra-rare sarcoma. We need every EHE patient to join this critical tool used to support researchers searching for treatments and a cure for EHE.

Consensus Paper on EHE Management

The Consensus Paper is a powerful, EHE-specific resource for patients, caregivers, and medical professionals that answers critical questions regarding diagnosis and treatment.
