title: [Arterial-portal shunting in hepatic cavernous hemangioma; a case report].
abstract: A 60-year-old woman had a small hepatic tumor in the right lobe detected by CT scan. Angiography showed a hypervascular lesion with shunting of dense contrast material into portal vein radicles. Resected specimen revealed a cavernous hemangioma. The angiographic differentiation between small hemangiomas and malignant hypervascular neoplasms of the liver can be difficult.
