Title: Transcatheter Arterial Embolization of Two Symptomatic Giant Cavernous Hemangiomas of the Liver

Abstract

Cavernous hemangiomas are usually asymptomatic; however, a small percentage may cause symptoms. This case report discusses palliation by transcatheter arterial embolization with polyvinyl alcohol particles.
