摘要
Cavernous hemangiomatosis of the colon and liver in a 38-year-old woman presenting with a history of cramp like abdominal pain and a mass in the right iliac fossa are presented. Abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography demonstrated multiple liver hemangiomas as well as a noncystic lesion in the right iliac fossa. Operative findings were suggestive of diffuse hemangiomatosis of the right colon and an extensive right hemicolectomy was performed. A review of the literature is presented, considering current diagnostic and therapeutic methods.
