Abstract

Infantile hepatic hemangiomendothelioma, a bening vascular neoplasia derived from endothelial cells, is the most common newborn tumor located in the liver. The tumor has female predominancy. Mostly, it is associated with a good prognosis and may show spontaneous regression by the time the infant is 1 year of age. Although most of the patients are asymptomatic, abdominal mass, hepatomegaly, jaundice, nausea, and vomiting can be encountered among common clinical findings. Herein, a 1.5-month-old boy with abdominal distention was referred to our gastroenterology unit for hepatomegaly. Non-invasive diagnostic modalities revealed infantile hepatic hemangioendothelioma

Özet

İnfantil hepatik hemanjioendotelyoma, karaciğerde bebeklik döneminde en sık rastlanan, endotel hücrelerinden köken alan benin vasküler bir neoplazidir. Kızlarda erkeklerden daha fazla görülmektedir. İnfantil hemanjioendotelyoma genellikle selimdir, kendiliğinde 1 yaşına kadar küçülebilir. Klinik olarak çoğunlukla asemptomatik olmakla birlikte hepatomegali, abdominal kitle, sarılık ve bulantı kusma rastlanan klinik bulgulardır. Bu çalışmada, karın şişliği yakınması ile getirilip non invazif yöntemler sonucunda nadir görülen infantil hepatik hemanjioendotelyoma tanısı konulan 1,5 aylık erkek olgu sunulmak istendi
