Abstract
Two cases of hepatic hemangiomas are described diagnosed by angiography and controlled by repeat angiography after 2.5 and 6 years, respectively. The radiologic appearance is described and although it varies, angiography must be considered the safest method of diagnosis; biopsy is contraindicated. Steroid therapy seems to be a possible mode of treatment.
