Abstract
Hepatic hemangioma is the most common benign liver tumor, typically asymptomatic and with an excellent prognosis. However, the pedunculated form is uncommon and can present as an exophytic mass mimicking other abdominal pathology. Therefore, it can be a real diagnostic challenge in imaging. We present a rare case of a 44-year-old woman under follow-up in the dermatology department for systemic scleroderma, who underwent an abdominal CT as part of the evaluation of her condition, and was incidentally diagnosed with a pedunculated hepatic hemangioma confirmed on dynamic contrast-enhanced CT.
