Abstract
We report an unusual case of multilocular cystic cavernous hemangioma of the liver. The patient was a 61-year-old woman without liver disfunction but who had multicystic mass lesions in the liver. Although cavernous hemangiomas are usually accurately diagnosed by the various imaging modalities, our case showed atypical features.
