Follow-up for Hepatic Hemangioma

Recommended Follow-up Protocol

• For hepatic hemangiomas less than 1 cm, the European Association for the Study of the Liver recommends a first follow-up ultrasound at 6 months, and if the nodule remains stable for 12 months, it is possible to return to a normal surveillance interval of 6 months 1, 2, 3
• If the nodule grows or changes pattern during follow-up, further investigations should be considered, as suggested by the European Association for the Study of the Liver 1, 3
