Popis: To explore the treatment of pediatric hepatic hemangioma and the role of the Hisense computer-assisted surgery (Hisense CAS) system in diagnosis and treatment. We collected the clinical and follow-up data of all pediatric hepatic hemangioma cases in our pediatric surgery department from March 2008 to March 2021 for retrospective analysis. The Hisense CAS system was used to create three-dimensional (3D) reconstructions based on computed tomography data. There were 71 patients, mainly infants (prenatal to 39 months). There were more males than females (42 vs. 29), and the alpha-fetoprotein level was significantly increased in 8 cases. 3D reconstruction by the Hisense CAS system showed that hepatic artery tracking was helpful for the differential diagnosis of pediatric hepatic hemangioma. Twenty-three children treated with propranolol showed significant differences in the tumour diameter, volume, and tumour-to-liver volume ratio after treatment (all P
