ABSTRACT
Hemangiomas are the most common benign tumors of the liver, with a prevalence ranging from 0.5 to 7% in necropsies. Tumors larger than 5 cm are called giant hemangiomas. Rupture is a very rare complication, although it is the most severe. We report the case of a 52-year-old patient who presented with a ruptured giant hepatic hemangioma. She was treated with a two-stage surgery, with successful outcome.
