Abstract

The CT and MR appearance of giant cavernous hemangiomas can be confusing, and some atypical radiographic findings have been described. We report the CT and MR features of a giant cavernous hemangioma of the liver with atypical presentation. CT showed a large hypodense geographical lesion involving the majority of the liver and multiple scattered peripheral lesions. The T2-weighted MR images revealed a huge hyperintense lesion with multiple satellite nodules.
