有症狀之肝臟血管瘤普遍以經血管栓塞,經皮穿肝酒精注射,或射頻消融術來治療均為文獻所認可。在此報告一個六十三歲女性患有肝硬化,原發性肝癌,及肝血管瘤。經過經皮穿肝酒精注射及經血管栓塞之後其肝血管瘤仍然存在。
Hepatic hemangiomas are not routinely treated except for large symptomatic lesions. Trans-arterial chemo-embolization (TACE) and percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI) are often used to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We report a patient with underlying HCC and a coexisting small hemangioma that was inadvertently treated with both PEI and TACE because of misdiagnosis as an additional HCC. The hemangioma persisted with no visible imaging changes, nor complications. It is important to identify hemangiomas in HCC patients to avoid unnecessary treatment.
