Hepatic hemangiomas-liver problems, what to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Get clarified: Liver hemangiomas aren't a problem. One person in 100 has at least one; they're the equivalent of gorbachev's birthmark. The malignant counterpart is extremely rare and not treatable. If you have some other liver issue, it's unrelated.
