* Procedures to stop blood flow to the hemangioma. Your surgeon may recommend stopping blood flow through the main artery to the hemangioma.
I have liver hemangioma since 2004. Hemangioma are benign and congenital. I underwent liver embolization procedure last September 2008. Interventional Radiologist did the procedure. It blocked the veins direct to the tumor. I had 2 ultrasound guided liver biopsy also and it was all benign. Pain will always be a part of our daily lives if we did'nt take care of ourselves. We must have our excersice like walking and eat non fatty foods.
m not saying the guy is a quack, but is that how hepatic hemangioma sizes are measured? if yes, do I have a giant hemangioma? I can scan and send over the image if an expert can be of help.
I have a large (6.9 cm) hemangioma on the right lobe of my liver and gall bladder disease w/out gallstones (Hida scan--8% ejection fraction). It is obvious from digestive symptoms that the gall bladder needs to come out. However, I am concerned to have surgery due to the hemangioma. Is there anyone in this community who has a hemangioma and has also had gall bladder surgery? Despite my surgeon's advice that the GB can come out with no problem, I am still concerned.
I just discovered this sight, and was reading your conversations about liver hemangioma. This encouraged me to write, as I was just told a couple of weeks ago that I have a Liver Hemangioma. I was having an ultrasound done on my gallbladder, because I felt the I may have had gall stones or something. Well, the ultrasound didn't detect anything wrong with that, but picked up on the hemangioma. I'm still not convinced that I don't have gallstones, as I'm still having pain.
Hi there,
Recently had a 7.3 cm x 4.5 cm mass found by accident on my liver in the left lobe. They did a CT scan w/out contrast looking for kidney stones, which the ER doctor thought was causing my sudden onset of extreme lower back pain, but found the mass by accident. Since then I have had an MRI, lower abdominal ultrasound, a second CT scan w/contrast and a nuclear test done.
What kind of imaging did they do to discover the fatty liver and hemangioma? Do you know how large your hemangioma is? Typical, hemangiomas are left alone if they are under 5 cm and not causing you any symptoms or pain. For fatty liver, usually the doctors would want to figure out what is causing it, if not diet or alcohol related. Low fat diet and exercise are highly recommended for fatty liver, along with abstinence from alcohol.
I had surgery to have a Liver Hemangioma removed in 3/07. It turned out to be 35 centimeters in size. I have been feeling fine but have gained about 20 pounds, My husband thinks it might have grown back. What are the chances of a liver hemangioma returning. I did have a recheck six months after the surgery but nothing since.
Any comments.

Dont you think that the liver hemangioma has something to do with the gallbladder pollyp? I want to know it because I saw the case of this 31 years old woman that had both of them. I also have them and I am really concerned about that. What do you think?

I now have a 7cm liver hemangioma I am 5' 2", lost 15 lbs last summer due to nausea and no appetite. I weigh 104 lbs. now. What is the best way to treat this hemangioma? I read a 2004 blog that mentioned Dr. Fred Lee at the Univ. of Wisconsin using a Radiofrequency Ablation machine with three probes that removes the hemangioma (less anesthesia and less risk) versus surgery?
hemangioma was only a guess by x-ray tech (see my original post above). gastro DR thought FNH, so biopsy ordered to be safe.
from what i've been told and read, hemangioma is similar to spider veins an not a big problem
good news.....my biopsy only shows fatty tissue. no further concerns. just need follow up CT in 6 months.
doctor tell me that i got hepatic hemangioma with 0.8cm by Doppler colour. i'm 31 year old, i want to know is there any prossible Doppler colour can misdiagnose hepatic hemangioma? such as liver cancer?
great thanks.
Poorly defined, hypodense, left medial segment liver lesion, not typical of an hemangioma. More convincing imaging on CT and suspect atypical hemangioma in setting of fatty liver
2. Moderate fatty liver. Fatty sparing around gallbladder fossa

As far as the lesion, I recently had this happen. In January they found a hyperechoic lesion from ultrasound . I had a CT scan in March with contrast and a MRI last month, both saying it was benign and almost certainly a hemangioma. MRI is the best imaging at differenciating a hemangioma from other lesions. It's harder with small lesions but if you have MRI with Gadolinium contrast that should do it. Just make sure to watch lesion by alternating ultrasound and MRI for a while.
An ultrasound test showed a 4.5cm hyperechoic lesion in the left lobe of my liver! I was told that most likely it is a hemangioma, but it could also be cancer?? My liver function test is normal. I am scheduled for a CT scan next week and I am freaking out now!
Can a hemangioma cause the kind of gastric pain that I'm experiencing? The pain gets worse after eating. It feels like there is something in my stomach and I can't eat much.
I have a follow-up MRI for a 5mm lesion that looks like hemangioma on u/s and MRI. Now, HR has already said that MRI is very good for determining hemangioma from HCC but is that still true in a lesion as small as 5mm?
Thanks!
I had a cervical MRI done 14 Oct 08. One of the findings was hemangioma in C4. I need to know how serious this is and could it be the cause of the severe pain & lack of control in my left arm?
so my question then is, if not a hemangioma, what else could it be? Of the 5 lesions, only 2 were characterized as hemangioma, 1 was too small to characterize, 1 was either a hemangioma or venous varix (not sure what that is either), and the other I have described above...I'm very concerned for obvious reasons, I still feel ill and I'm being told by doctors that I have harmless benign hemangiomas yet the biggest has yet to be identified.
Two years ago, she had an surgery, X-ray surgery to remove the liver hemangioma, which was on the surface. However, the disease got worse. The hemangioma continued growing and now is 66x20 mm big. We regrreted having the surgery because it got much worse after it. I wonder if there is any health product or supplement that can help with liver hemangioma. Also, is there any other advise? I am very worried because the hemangioma keeps growing!! Please help me!
m a 35 yr old male who has recently been diagnosed with a liver hemangioma (1.4x1.7 cm). Since liver hemangioma and melatonin seems to have some relationship I'm wondering if it is safe for me to use melatonin to aid my sleep?
Thank you very much for your advice.
I had an MRI two weeks ago after insisting it from my PCM. Today my MRI showed that I have a hemangioma in the T1 region. I was told that it does not cause the pain that I am experiencing and that I should come back in 4 months for another MRI. Does anyone have any updated information on this problem? Please help.
