Question
A senior recently experienced discomfort, weight loss, and upon examination, was found to have a hemangioma in the posterior segment of the right lobe of the liver. How should this condition be treated?
Answer
Hemangiomas are typically benign lesions. If the hemangioma is small in size, it usually does not require special treatment and can be monitored regularly with Doppler ultrasound. However, if the hemangioma is large, surgical treatment is generally recommended. The treatment should be carried out according to the physician’s advice, at a local large-scale three-level A hospital’s vascular department. After surgery, patients should follow conventional anti-inflammatory and adjustment measures.
