    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Cardiology
    • Neonatal Pathology
    • Diagnostic Imaging

    Background:

    • Infantile heart failure and hepatomegaly can present with complex differential diagnoses.
    • Hepatic hemangioendothelioma is a known, though rare, cause of these symptoms in neonates.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report a case of neonatal heart failure and hepatomegaly.
    • To highlight the diagnostic challenge in differentiating hepatic hemangioendothelioma from hepatic hamartoma.

    Main Methods:

    • Clinical presentation review.
    • Radiological imaging analysis (e.g., ultrasound, MRI).
    • Histopathological examination of the liver tumor.

    Main Results:

    • Initial radiological findings were suggestive of hepatic hemangioendothelioma.
    • Subsequent histopathological analysis confirmed the tumor as a hepatic hamartoma.

    Conclusions:

    • Hepatic hamartoma can mimic hepatic hemangioendothelioma in neonates with heart failure and hepatomegaly.
    • Histopathological confirmation is crucial for accurate diagnosis and management of liver tumors in infants.
