Giant Hepatic Hemangioma

Hepatic hemangioma (HH) is a congenital vascular anomaly comprising networks of abnormal blood and/or lymphatic vessels with endothelial cell proliferation. Their pathophysiology is not fully understood, and no specific drug is available to treat them. Conservative management, which limits observation, is preferred for most patients. A HH larger than 4 cm is considered a giant HH that may be treated using surgery ranging from embolization to hepatic resection or liver transplantation. Here, we describe a case with multiple and giant HHs that regressed significantly after treatment with azithromycin (AZM). A systematic literature review of HH and the effects of AZM on angiogenesis was then conducted.

Hepatic Hemangiomas

Hepatic hemangioma is the most common benign hepatic tumor, and most of them are small in size and asymptomatic. Giant hepatic hemangiomas are uncommon, but pedunculated giant hemangiomas are even rarer and often difficult to diagnose because of their exophytic development. We report here on a 48-year-old man with a symptomatic pedunculated giant hepatic hemangioma and hepatic angiomatosis, mimicking a gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor with liver metastases. The preoperative diagnosis was suspected on imaging including CT scan and MRI. The patient was successfully operated (left hepatic lobectomy), without any complication, and the pathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis. We reviewed the English literature, and to our knowledge, our case represents the largest case reported so far when compared with the 19 other informative cases.
