Abstract: | Eight children ranging in age from 1 day to 6 years with mesenchymal hamartoma of the liver are reported. The diagnosis was established by the characteristic ultrasound finding of a mass of mixed cystic and solid consistency. The treatment of choice is operative resection, which was accomplished with low postoperative morbidity and no mortality. By reducing excessive vascularity, angiographic embolisation facilitated resection in one patient. |
