Article Abstract
Hemangiomas are de most frequent benign liver tumours. Their clinical relevance is small but they can cause to the patient and/or the physician a great worry because can be indistinguishable from hepatic malignances. From 1991 to 1994 five patients with liver hemangiomas were diagnosed by laparoscopy after a erroneous and/or contradictory interpretation by various imaging techniques. In four cases hemangiomas resembled metastatic carcinoma of the liver, and in the other patient hemangioma was interpreted as focal nodular hyperplasia. Diagnosis and treatment are discussed.
