Angiomas of the Liver Compressing the Bile Duct: A Rare Cause of Obstructive Cholestasis

Year: 2024
Type: article
Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Hepatic angiomas, the most common benign tumors of the liver, are generally asymptomatic. However, their location or size can lead to rare complications such as bile duct compression. We report the case of a 35-year-old woman presenting with cholestatic jaundice secondary to a compressive hepatic angioma. The diagnosis was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging. This case highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges associated with this rare pathology and underscores the importance of multidisciplinary management.
