Abstract:
Infantile hepatic hemangioendothelioma is a rare disorder. It is a benign entity and usually resolves spontaneously. Most patients present in infancy and early childhood. Because of its natural course and symptom onset, most cases are discovered during childhood. We experienced a rare case of infantile hepatic hemangioendothelioma in an adult.
