Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Oncology
  • Hepatobiliary Surgery

Background:

  • Primary hepatic tumors are rare in children, representing 3% of pediatric neoplasms.
  • Infantile hemangioendothelioma is a benign hepatic tumor of mesenchymal origin, typically diagnosed before six months of age.

Observation:

  • This report details an atypical case of infantile hemangioendothelioma in a 19-month-old female.
  • The tumor exhibited an unusual presentation and progression for this age group.

Findings:

  • Diagnosis was confirmed through combined radiological and histopathological evaluation.
  • Surgical excision of the hepatic tumor resulted in an uneventful recovery.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering infantile hemangioendothelioma even with atypical presentations in older infants.
