Due to the expanding use of diagnostic imaging, an increasing number of liver tumours are discovered. Benign tumours are very common; they rarely cause symptoms and often they do not require any
treatment. However, because of differences in the natural history including risk of complications and malignant transformation exact diagnosis is important. Dedicated radiological examinations serve as
important diagnostic tools reducing the need for biopsy. In this review we provide an update on the diagnosis and treatment of benign liver tumours adding to existing recommendations on hepatocellular
carcinomas and adenomas.
