[Giant hemangioma of the liver disclosed by fever and an inflammatory syndrome. Apropos of 3 cases].
Three cases of giant liver haemangioma were revealed by fever and biological inflammatory changes, which disappeared after resection of the haemangioma. These rare symptoms accompanying liver haemangioma may lead to misdiagnosis. Resection whenever possible results in the disappearance of symptoms. Anatomic necrotic changes inside the angioma seem to be the cause of these inflammatory patterns.
