What causes liver hemangioma?
Disease description:
I've been experiencing nausea and vomiting these past couple of days. After going to the hospital for a checkup, I found out I have a liver hemangioma. What causes hepatic hemangiomas?
Hepatic hemangiomas may result from abnormal development of blood vessel tissue in the liver, or from viral or bacterial infections affecting the capillaries in the liver, leading to local deformation. In women, hepatic hemangiomas may also be associated with changes in hormonal levels. Additionally, factors such as dietary habits and emotional state may also contribute.
