there were approximately twenty cases reported in the English literature, of which five cases were designated as giant hemangioma. We reported another giant mesenteric hemangioma, measuring 35x20x11 cm. with a weight of 5,5 Kilograms. The etiology of mesenteric hemangioma was still debatable. In our case, the patient only experienced mild abdominal pain, without gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Therefore, we were in favor of mesenteric origin as opposed to gastrointestinal origin. The symptoms were non-specific, ranging from abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and gastrointestinal bleeding if Gastrointestinal tract was involved. Preoperative diagnosis was very challenging despite the modern images’ technics have become available, such as computed tomography magnetic resonance and ultrasonography. The final diagnoses of mesenteric hemangioma have been exclusively established by histological examination after surgical removal of the tumor. Surgical resection with clear margin is the treatment of choice.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
