| Popis: | Congenital heart failure in the neonate supported by classic imaging findings may allow the implementation of medical therapy for presumed hemangioendothelioma without obtaining a tissue diagnosis. This case report describes a neonate with these classic clinical and radiographic findings but who underwent surgery for failing medical treatment and was diagnosed as having a hepatoblastoma by pathology. This case supports the need to obtain tissue confirmation before beginning medical therapy. |
