Ultrasonographic patterns in hepatic hemangiomas.

P Mirk, L Rubaltelli, M Bazzocchi

    Journal of Clinical Ultrasound : JCU
    |October 1, 1982
    PubMed
    Summary

    Ultrasound reveals varied patterns for hepatic hemangioma, a benign liver tumor. Definitive diagnosis is possible for hyperechoic, well-defined lesions in asymptomatic patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Hepatology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Hepatic hemangiomas are common benign liver tumors.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To identify and describe the sonographic patterns of hepatic hemangiomas.
    • To determine criteria for definitive ultrasound diagnosis.

    Main Methods:

    • Ultrasound examination of 21 patients with hepatic hemangioma.
    • Analysis of lesion echogenicity, pattern, and characteristics.

    Main Results:

    • Three main sonographic patterns were identified: hyperechoic (14 cases), complex (5 cases), and hypoechoic with enhancement (2 cases).
    • Hepatic hemangiomas display variable ultrasonographic features.

  • Hyperechoic, well-defined lesions in asymptomatic patients suggest a definitive diagnosis.

    • Conclusions:

    • Ultrasound can demonstrate diverse appearances of hepatic hemangiomas.
    • Definitive diagnosis by ultrasound is limited to specific lesion characteristics in asymptomatic individuals.
