Hepatic hemangioma is the most common benign hepatic tumor. Ultrasound is sufficient for diagnosis. Otherwise, magnetic resonance imaging is necessary. Surgical resection is indicated only in the rare case of complications or disabling functional impairment. We report the case of a hepatic hemangioma initially diagnosed as a gastrointestinal stromal tumor of the stomach, in which surgical resection allowed the disappearance of the painful epigastric symptomatology.
