Diffuse hepatic hemangiomatosis without extrahepatic lesions is extremely rare in adults. A case of diffuse hepatic hemangiomatosis involving right lobe in a 50-year-old woman was presented. The hemangiomatosis was demonstrated by ultrasonography, computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance image (MRI), and was confirmed histopathologically. Although diffuse hepatic hemangiomatosis is a rare disease in adults, its diagnosis should be considered in patients with diffuse tumor growth in one or both hepatic lobes and distinguished from malignant tumors. The present case is the first documented case of diffuse hepatic hemangiomatosis in an adult in Korea.

OBJECTIVETo summarize the clinical features and surgical methods for colorectal cavernous hemangioma in China.

METHODSData of 4 cases in Peking Union Medical College Hospital and 54 cases with colorectal cavernous hemangioma from 1979 to 2006 reported in Chinese literatures were analyzed retrospectively, including clinic manifestations and surgery treatment.

RESULTSThe incidence of male to female was 1.0:1.0, and 43.1% of the patients had their first onset of recurrent rectal bleeding in early childhood. Colonoscopy, rectal CT scan and MRI were the accurate methods for the diagnosis (100%). 91.4% of the patients had diffuse infiltrative lesions and 8.6% of the patients had localized lesions. 82.8% of the patients underwent surgical treatment while 3.5% of the patient did not received treatment.

CONCLUSIONSColonoscopy is the first choice for the diagnosis of colorectal cavernous hemangioma. Local resection should be performed for the localized cavernous hemangioma. Sigmoid colon and rectum resection with coloanal anastomosis is suitable for the diffuse and infiltrative colorectal cavernous hemangioma.
