Abstract:
Synchronous existence of hepatic, splenic, and skeletal hemangiomas has not been reported previously in the English literature to our knowledge. In this case report, we present a case of coexistence of hepatic, splenic, and skeletal hemangiomas in a 30-year-old woman with on and off bilateral lumbar region pain and no significant past medical history. Radiological investigations, including ultrasound and computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging helped identify the synchronous existence of hepatic, splenic, and skeletal hemangiomas. The patient improved with conservative management and was kept on follow-ups. Although there have been reports of coexistence of splenic and hepatic hemangiomas in the literature, to our knowledge, this is the first report of synchronous existence of hepatic, splenic, and skeletal hemangiomas.
