Complications
In rare cases, a cavernous hemangioma may rupture. Babies may develop a type of hepatic hemangioma called benign infantile hemangioendothelioma (also called multinodular hepatic hemangiomatosis). This rare, noncancerous tumor has been linked to high rates of heart failure and death in infants. Infants are usually diagnosed by the time they are 6 months old.
Pregnancy and estrogen-based medications can cause cavernous hemangiomas to grow.
