Abstract
BACKGROUND: Hepatic hemangioma (HH) is the most common benign solid tumor of the liver. The aim of this study is to review our experiences of surgical treatment for giant HH and to show the impact of HH size and type of surgical resection on surgical outcomes. PATIENTS AND METHODS: This is a retrospective study of the cases who underwent surgery for giant HH during the period from January 2000 to April 2017. RESULTS: Elective surgery was performed for 144 patients who had giant HH. The median diameter of resected HH was 10 cm (5-31 cm). Enucleation was performed for 92 (63.9%) patients and anatomical resection was required in 52 (36.1%) patients. No statistical difference between enucleation and resection as regards intraoperative and postoperative findings. The amount of intraoperative blood loss is significantly more in HH > 10 cm (300 vs. 575 ml, P = 0.007), the need of blood transfusion was significantly more in HH > 10 cm (P = 0.000), and the operation time was significantly longer in HH > 10 cm (120 vs. 180 min, P = 0.000). The size of HH had no significant effect as regards the development of postoperative complications. CONCLUSION: Giant hemangioma can be treated surgically with low incidence of morbidity and mortality. No statistical difference between enucleation and resection as regards surgical outcomes. In left lobe HH, HH located deeper in posterior hepatic segments and in multiple HH, hepatic resection is preferred. The size of the HH had significant impact intraoperative blood loss and operative time.
