“…12) Case 6 in Table 1 had multiple skull hemangiomas associated with subcutaneous hemangiomas and Case 8 had another intraosseous lesion. We found no consensus on the terminology in the literature to describe multiple hemangiomas that affect multiple organs, but the terms``diffuse hemangiomatosis'' 17) or``multiple hemangiomatosis'' 21) have been used. The coexistence of calvarial cavernous hemangioma, especially if multifocal, with hemangiomas in other organs is very rare.…”

A 55-year-old woman presented with multiple calvarial cavernous hemangiomas manifesting as right frontal swelling. Craniography and computed tomography showed an osteolytic lesion. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated multiple intraosseous lesions, and radioisotope bone scintigraphy identified even more numerous lesions. Total resection of the right frontal lesion and cranioplasty was performed. Histological examination confirmed the lesion as a cavernous hemangioma. Computed tomography of the abdomen revealed multiple hepatic lesions, which might be cavernous hemangiomas. Cavernous hemangioma is a rare bony tumor that should be considered in the differential diagnosis of skull tumors. A patient with multiple cavernous hemangiomas should undergo systemic examination to look for latent lesions, and regular follow-up examinations.

“…It occurs in all age groups, although hepatic hemangiomatosis occurs predominantly in infants and may cause life threatening conditions (1). However, diffuse hepatic hemangiomatosis in adults is very rarely encountered and moreso when observed without any other organ involvement (2-4). Although several cases of long-term adult survival of diffuse neonatal hemangiomatosis have been reported (5, 6), the etiology and natural history of diffuse hepatic hemangiomatosis remains unclear.…”

Diffuse Hepatic Hemangiomatosis without Extrahepatic Involvement in an Adult Patient

We report an extremely rare case of a diffuse hepatic hemangiomatosis without extrahepatic involvement in an adult. The imaging findings of this tumor were similar to those of a hepatic hemangioma and included contrast enhancement with a centripetal filling pattern of the entire hepatic tumor on the delayed phase of a dynamic CT and inhomogeneous diffuse uptake of the entire tumor on blood-pool images obtained five hours later on a 99mTc-labeled red blood cell scan. Despite its rarity, diffuse hepatic hemangiomatosis can be suggested in adult patients with diffusely involved hepatic tumors showing the radiological findings of a hepatic hemangioma.

“…The most prevalent complication of DHH is liver failure [16,22,36,37]. In reported cases, other complications such as Kasabach-Merritt syndrome, disseminated intravascular coagulation, and cardiac or various organic dysfunctions have also been noted, invariably leading to exitus [13,35].…”

Liver transplantation represents the definitive intervention for various etiologies of liver failure and encompasses a spectrum of rare indications crucial to understanding the diverse landscape of end-stage liver disease, with significantly improved survival rates over the past three decades. Apart from commonly encountered liver transplant indications such as decompensated cirrhosis and liver cancer, several rare diseases can lead to transplantation. Recognition of these rare indications is essential, providing a lifeline to individuals facing complex liver disorders where conventional treatments fail. Collaborative efforts among healthcare experts lead not only to timely interventions but also to the continuous refinement of transplant protocols. This continued evolution in transplant medicine promises hope for those facing diverse and rare liver diseases, marking a paradigm shift in the landscape of liver disease management.
