A member asked:
Can a benign liver hemangioma become cancerous after several years?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Never say never, but very highly unlikely. Bleeding from a large hemangioma can nevertheless be life threatening. Such lesions can be destroyed by radiofrequency or by embolization, without the need for open surgery.
