[The angiographic appearances of liver haemangiomas (author's transl)].
Thirteen cases of cavernous haemangiomas of the liver are described, and the clinical features, diagnosis and treatment are discussed. The purpose of this paper is to show the value of selective coeliac angiography in the differential diagnosis. The most important angiographic findings in cavernous haemangiomas of the liver are: supplying arteries of normal width, prolonged stasis of the contrast medium producing the appearance of spotty contrast depots, frequently, sharp delineation of the tumours; no A-V fistulae and no tumour vessels. Other hypervascular liver tumours must be distinguished from these, particularly hepatocellular carcinomas and sarcomas, as well as the rare haemangioendotheliomas.
