Enucleation of a Giant Hemangioma of Liver: Old School Revisited

Abstract EN

Hemangiomas are the most frequent benign hepatic tumours and are usually found in patients aged between 40 and 60 years, more frequently in women.

In 30–35% of patients, the lesions are multiple.

If the lesions are larger than 4–10 cm, they are coined as “giant” hemangioma.

Here, we present a case of giant hemangioma treated with enucleation of the lesion and the advantages of the procedure.
