Abstract
Mesenchymal hamartoma of the liver is a rare benign tumor, diagnosed mainly during the first two years of life. Its pathogenesis is poorly understood. Imaging plays an essential role in diagnosis and post-therapeutic follow-up. The diagnosis of certainty remains histological and the treatment is essentially surgical. We report a case of hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma diagnosed in a one-year-old infant with isolated abdominal distension. The diagnosis was evoked on imaging and confirmed after histological examination.
