Benign liver tumors are relatively common, but usually causes no symptoms.
Mostly found at the time the patient underwent skening (eg ultrasound, CT or MRI), for other reasons.

Several types of benign tumors is causing the heart to be enlarged or bleeding into the abdominal cavity.
Liver usually functions normally, so that blood tests provide results that normal or only a mild increase in the levels of liver enzymes.

Which is a benign liver tumors:

• hepatocellular adenomas
• hemangioma

Which is a malignant tumor of the liver:

• hepatoma
• Kolangiokarsinoma
• Hepatoblastoma
• Angiosarcoma.

Hepatocellular adenomas

Hepatocellular adenomas are benign liver tumors are often found.

Hepatocellular adenomas occurred mainly in women of childbearing age, probably due to the use of birth control pills increase the risk of this tumor.

Hepatocellular adenomas typically are asymptomatic, so most can not be detected.
Although rare, these adenomas may rupture suddenly and cause bleeding into the abdominal cavity, so it needs to do emergency surgery.

Adenomas very rarely develop into malignant tumors.
Adenomas caused by birth control pills often disappears after pill use is stopped.

Hemangioma

Hemangiomas are benign tumors that form the heart of the mass of abnormal blood vessels.

Approximately 1-5% of adults have small liver hemangiomas, which does not cause symptoms.

In infants, large hemangiomas sometimes cause symptoms that lead to the discovery of the disease, such as widespread blood clotting and heart failure. In these circumstances it may be necessary following surgery.

These tumors are usually diagnosed only when patients undergo an ultrasound or CT scan.
Small hemangiomas that do not cause symptoms, usually do not require treatment.

CANCER HEART OTHER PRIMARY

Kolangiokarsinoma

Is a cancer that originates in the lining of the bile ducts within the liver or bile ducts.
In Eastern countries, liver infestation by parasites (flatworms / tapeworm), thought to play a role in the occurrence of this cancer.
In patients with ulcerative colitis and chronic sclerotic cholangitis, sometimes occur kolangiokarsinoma.

Hepatoblastoma

Hepatoblastoma is a cancer that is more often found in infants.
Sometimes arise in children who are larger and can produce gonadotropin hormones that will cause early puberty.
Hepatoblastoma usually detected because of the decline in general health conditions and cause the formation of a large mass in the right upper abdomen.

angiosarcoma

Angiosarcoma is a rare cancer, which originates from blood vessels in the liver.
Angiosarcoma can be caused by vinyl chloride exposure in the workplace.
Kolangiosarkoma, hepatoblastoma, and angiosarcoma can be diagnosed only by liver biopsy, in which liver tissue samples taken with a needle for examination under a microscope.
Usually, treatment is only a little help, and most patients die within a few months after the tumor was detected.
If it can be detected early, only surgical treatment that can provide a longer life expectancy.
