A 39-year-old female with right hypochondralgia was diagnosed as having multiple, irregular shaped giant cavernous hemangiomas involving both hepatic lobes and underwent surgery, leaving only the anterior segment of the right hepatic lobe. Regeneration of the residual liver was satisfactory and postoperative course was uneventful. Although cavernous hemangioma of the liver is a benign disease, it is documented that the disease may rarely become progressive and eventuate in spontaneous ruputure or the occurrence of Kasabach-Merritt syndrome. The disease appears therefore to require regular monitoring from the outset and surgical treatment should be considered, as in malignancies, whenever subjective symptoms become manifest or hemangioma is noted to grow.
