High-Yield Explanation
Benign liver tumours Haemangiomas These are the most common liver lesions, and the repoed incidence has increased with the widespread availability ofdiagnostic ultrasound. They consist of an abnormal plexus of vessels, and their nature is usually apparent on ultrasound. If diagnostic unceainty exists, CT scanning with delayed contrast enhancement shows the characteristic appearance of slow contrast enhancement due to small vessel uptake in the haemangioma. Often, haemangiomas are multiple. Lesions found incidentally require radiological confirmation of their nature and no fuher treatment. The management of 'giant' haemangiomas is more controversial. Occasional repos of rupture of haemangiomas have led some to consider resection for large lesions, especially if they appear to be symptomatic. Diagnosis is usually incidental, and surgical resection only recommended if patients are significantly symptomatic or significant diagnostic unceainty remains after multimodal imaging.
