Therapeutic choices for benign liver tumours have changed over the last 20 years. From 1975 to December 1993, we observed 145 hemangiomas (HMG) (57.2% females-mean age 47.3 years, 42.8% males-mean age 50.4 years): we resected 42 symptomatic hemangiomas: mortality rate was 2.3%. 93 HMG without symptoms were only followed-up: 5 of these increased in size and were resected. 27 symptomatic cases over 50 focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) were resected, 7 cases were resected and 3 biopsied during laparotomy performed for other pathology. Postoperative mortality was nil. 13 cases were only followed-up after diagnosis by imaging techniques and fine needle biopsy: over a mean period of 23 months. No variations have been recorded. Increases in GGT and ALP were present respectively in 34% and 22% of FNH-cases. Scintigraphic techniques were the most diagnostically accurate (96.2%). All 16 hepatocellular adenomas (HCA) were removed (11 females, 5 males), postoperative mortality was nil: oestrogen administration was present in 36.4% of female cases, histological diagnosis v/s well differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma was difficult in 2 cases, whilst 3 cases had spontaneous rupture. We resected also 8 cases of biliary adenomas in order to determine a precise diagnosis v/s liver metastases, and 4 biliary cystadenomas for their malignant potential. Asymptomatic HMG and FNH for their low tendency to increase, can be only observed, whilst HCA must be fully resected for risk of bleeding and misdiagnosis v/s well differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma. |
