Right Hepatectomy for Giant Liver Hemangioma Guided with Intraoperative Ultrasound and Indocyanine Green

Background: Hepatic hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors of the liver, most of them asymptomatic. Surgical management includes enucleation, embolization, and liver resection. We present a case with symptomatic hepatic hemangioma susceptible to surgical treatment. Case Presentation: A 73-year-old man with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and a history of two small hemangiomas started with pain in the right upper quadrant. Computerized tomography showed multiple hypodense lesions highly suggestive of hepatic hemangioma. Tumor markers were found at normal levels. A right hepatectomy guided with indocyanine green and intraoperative ultrasound was performed minimal bleeding and pulmonary complications. Conclusion: Hepatectomy for giant hemangiomas combined with ultrasound and indocyanine green is a feasible option in patients with comorbidities, decreasing bleeding risk, and allowing complete and surgical resection.
