[Cavernous liver hemangioma with arterio-portal fistula].
Evidence of a cavernous hemangioma of the liver with fistula between hepatic artery and the portal vein of a 52 year-old woman with colickly upper abdominal pain and ascites was obtained using Duplex-Doppler-ultrasound. The diagnosis was confirmed by selective arteriography. After ligation of the left hepatic artery clinical symptoms abated. The cavernous hemangioma was followed up over 7 1/2 years with ultrasound. Ultrasound has been shown to be a valuable test for diagnosis and follow up of cavernous hemangioma.
