Recurrent giant hemangiomas of liver: Report of two rare cases with literature review

Figure 1 Case 1 (patient 6 in Table 1). Micrograph of the first recurrent hemangioma in the left hepatic lobe shows typical cavernous hemangioma (A: HE, × 100); and multiple foci of hemangioma-like vessels adjacent to the main tumor (B: HE, × 40) and at a distant from the main lesion (C: HE, × 40). D: Magnetic resonance image reveals recurrent hemangiomas involving right hepatic lobe 7 yr after left lobe resection for recurrent hemangioma. R: Right; L: Left; P: Peripheral.

Figure 2 Case 2 (patient 7 in Table 1). A: Right lobe resection specimen of case 2 with cavernous hemangioma (HE, × 100); B: Multiple hemangioma-like vessels in the surrounding liver parenchyma (HE, × 40); C-E: Computed tomography scan images [initial giant hemangioma in the right hepatic lobe (C), image after resection shows no residual hemangioma (D), and recurrent hemangioma in right lobe of liver, 4 years after second resection (E)]. R: Right; L: Left; P: Peripheral.
