Are liver hemangiomas contagious?
Disease description:
During the company's last organized physical examination, the doctor mentioned I might have a hemangioma on my liver. Is liver hemangioma contagious?
Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Qi Zhirong
Hepatic hemangioma is not contagious. It is a primary benign liver tumor caused by a cluster-like malformation of numerous arteries and veins within the liver, and this condition does not have infectious properties. Small hepatic hemangiomas may not cause noticeable symptoms, but as the tumor grows larger, it may lead to upper abdominal discomfort, loss of appetite, nausea, bloating, abdominal pain, and belching.
