A hepatic hemangioma is a benign liver tumor made up of a number of blood-filled chambers surrounded by liver-supplied endothelial cells. Most liver hemangiomas are asymptomatic and are only discovered during imaging studies for other conditions. Ultrasound is used for initial screening followed by a computed tomography scan, which shows slow enhancement due to small vessels and can be used to diagnose the location, number, and size of a hepatic hemangioma. A large liver hemangioma can range in size from 10 centimeters to more than 20 centimeters and can cause symptoms and complications that require prompt intervention. Hepatic hemangiomas can co-occur with other localized hepatic lesions; a careful diagnosis is necessary to distinguish them. In this case study, a 48-year-old woman complained of a stomachache that had persisted for three months. Following an initial clinical evaluation, hepatomegaly was found, and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) abdomen and pelvis was performed, revealing numerous giant hepatic hemangiomas. Significant improvements were noted in the patient's condition with tumor embolization.
肝血管瘤是一种良性肝脏肿瘤,由多个充满血液的腔室组成,周围环绕着由肝脏供血的内皮细胞。大多数肝血管瘤没有症状,仅在因其他疾病进行影像学检查时才被发现。超声用于初步筛查,随后进行计算机断层扫描,该扫描显示由于小血管导致的缓慢强化,可用于诊断肝血管瘤的位置、数量和大小。大的肝血管瘤大小范围从10厘米到超过20厘米,可引起需要及时干预的症状和并发症。肝血管瘤可与其他局限性肝脏病变同时出现;需要仔细诊断以区分它们。在本病例研究中,一名48岁女性主诉持续三个月的胃痛。经过初步临床评估,发现肝脏肿大,并进行了腹部和盆腔的对比增强计算机断层扫描(CECT),发现了许多巨大肝血管瘤。经肿瘤栓塞治疗后,患者病情有显著改善。
