In this report, we describe a very rare case of metastatic epithelioid hemangio-endothelioma (EHE) originating from other organs such as the lung and requiring craniotomy due to subsequent hemorrhage. A 50-year-old man was diagnosed with EHE in the bilateral lungs, the mediastinum, and the right adrenal gland 8 years earlier. One year earlier, he had developed spinal metastasis. Six months earlier, a screening brain MRI had revealed multiple brain metastases of tumor. He developed subcortical hemorrhage from the tumor in the right parietal lobe and successfully underwent removal of hematoma and tumor. Histopathological examinations revealed EHE. Metastatic EHE is very rare but may be at high risk of intracranial hemorrhage. It is quite important to consider the possibility of brain metastasis and subsequent bleeding when treating patients with EHE.
