Abstract

Hemangiomas are the most common tumors of the liver. Almost all cases are easily detected by ultrasonography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and erythrocyte-tagged technetium-99m scintigraphy. In case of inconclusive radiologic features and a history of malignancy or underlying liver disease, liver biopsy is indicated. Bleeding is the most feared complication of biopsy of hemangiomas due to its highly vascular structure. In our clinic, we biopsied seven patients with suspected masses and they were diagnosed histopathologically afterwards as having hemangiomas. We did not observe any complication including bleeding during or after the procedure. Although the case number is too small to reach a definite conclusion, we think that our report deserves attention in showing that concerns about bleeding during biopsy of hemangiomas may be overstated.

Özet

Hemanjiyomlar karaciğerin sık görülen tümörleridir. Neredeyse tüm vakalara ultrasonografi, bilgisayarlı tomografi, manyetik rezonans görüntüleme ve teknesyum işaretli eritrosit sintigrafisi ile tanı koymak mümkündür. Görüntüleme yöntemleriyle hemanjiyom varlığının dışlanamadığı vakalarda özellikle malignansi öyküsü ya da altta yatan karaciğer hastalığı öyküsü varsa biyopsi gerekir. İleri derecede vasküler yapıda olması sebebiyle hemanjiyom biyopsilerinde kanama komplikasyonları ndan çekinilir. Kliniğimizde 7 hastada şüpheli kitlelerden yaptığımız biyopsinin sonucunda hemanjiyom tanısı elde edilmiş, ancak işlem esnasında ve sonrasında kanama da dahil olmak üzere herhangi bir komplikasyonla karşılaşılmamıştır. Vaka sayımızın kısıtlı olmasına rağmen bu sonuçların hemanjiyomlarda biyopsiden çekinmenin abartıldığı olduğu konusunda dikkat çekici olduğunu düşünmekteyiz.
