  • Title: Mesenchymal hamartoma of the liver of an infant--case report.
    Author: Senyüz OF, Bozbora N, Girişken G.
    Journal: Z Kinderchir; 1988 Dec; 43(6):422-3. PubMed ID: 3239255.
    Abstract:
    A 10-month-old boy was found to have a huge hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma. Histologically the lesion appeared as large islands of loose mesenchymal tissue with profuse cystic bile ducts and hepatic cells. There were profuse bile duct and blood-vessel communications between the hamartoma and the right lobe of the liver. Because of benign nature of this rare neoplasm, more conservative operations are indicated rather than formal hepatic lobectomy.
