Abstract:Objective To evaluate the MRI findings of mesenteric hemangioma,and to improve the knowledge of the tumor. Methods MRI data of a patient with mesenteric hemangioma proved by pathology was analyzed, and literatures were reviewed. Results MRI scan revealed a huge solid-cystic and multilocular mass,which distributed in fan-shaped pattern in hypogastrium and pelvic. The mass presented mixed signals on T1WI, T2WI, and spectral presaturation attenuated inversion recovery(SPAIR). It showed multiple linear separated honeycomb like changes within the lesion. The edge of lesions on T2WI also showed multiple small vascular flow void. Adjacent tissues were compressed. There was a close relationship between the mass and intestine. Conclusion Mesenteric hemangioma has specific MRI findings. Understanding its radiological characteristics and information of mesenteric anatomy could improve the diagnosis of this disease. The final diagnosis relies on pathological examination.
