Fever of unknown origin: a rare presentation of giant hepatic hemangioma

Abstract Hepatic hemangioma is mostly asymptomatic and incidental finding on imaging. Fever of unknown origin as a sole presentation is rare. We present an interesting case report of a 49-year-old female, who presented with fever for three months. Extensive blood investigations and infectious workup failed to reveal the cause. Contrast computed tomography of abdomen revealed a giant (15 × 11 cm) hemangioma arising from left lateral segment of liver, and was attributed as a cause for fever. Surgical excision of hemangioma completely ameliorated the fever.
