RESUMO
Hepatic hemangiomas, also referred to as cavernous hemangiomas, are the most common benign mesenchymal hepatic tumors. They are often solitary, small lesions that have an excellent safety-prognosis and were commonly incidentally detected. Hepatic hemangiomas are frequently asymptomatic, although symptoms are more likely in those lesions larger than 5 cm also referred to as giant hemangiomas. We present a case of a pauci-asymptomatic 43 year-old woman with an uncommon 16x16x27 cm giant hemangioma and perform a review of the literature.

Los hemangiomas hepáticos, también denominados hemangiomas cavernomatosos, son los tumores hepáticos más comunes. Se caracterizan por ser lesiones solitarias, pequeñas y benignas que se diagnostican frecuentemente de forma incidental. Suelen ser lesiones asintomáticas, si bien los síntomas se presentan más frecuentemente en aquellas lesiones mayores de 5 cm, también conocidas como hemangiomas gigantes. Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 43 años, pauci-asintomática que presenta un hemangioma gigante de 16x16x27 cm, así como se realiza una revisión sistemática de la literatura.
