Feasibility, safety, and efficacy of ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation for giant hepatic hemangioma

Hepatic hemangioma is a common benign liver tumor. The majority of cases are asymptomatic and require no specific treatment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility, safety and efficacy of microwave ablation (MWA) for symptomatic or enlarging giant hepatic hemangioma (≥10 cm).From December 2013 to June 2016, 12 patients with giant hepatic hemangioma (≥10 cm) underwent ultrasound-guided percutaneous MWA, and ablation-related...
