title: [Hepatic hemangiomas. The importance of the image].
abstract: In the authors' experience, 0.24% of the patients submitted to liver imaging (ultrasound or computerized tomography) have hemangiomas. These are shown as solid nodular lesions, mostly found by chance. Sometimes they do not appear as typical solid vascular lesions. The authors' experience and the literature are discussed. A clear and concise approach to this benign neoplasm is suggested.
