Conservative management of mesenchymal hamartoma of the liver.
C.S. Mott Children's Hospital, University of Michigan Medical Center, Ann Arbor 48109-0245, USA.
The natural history of mesenchymal hamartoma of the liver is poorly understood. This case demonstrates the course of a biopsy-proven mesenchymal hamartoma using sequential computed tomography (CT) examinations. These CT scans show initial expansion of the lesion with subsequent involution. The spontaneous resolution in this patient suggests the possibility of conservative management of asymptomatic mesenchymal hamartomas. The case is presented, and the literature on mesenchymal hamartoma is reviewed.
