Although the coexistence of infantile hepatic hemangioma and hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma associated with placental mesenchymal dysplasia is extremely rare, the pathological and pathogenetic similarities between these disorders suggest that they could have derived from similar embryologic origins rather than being a mere coincidence. Further follow-up is required, with careful attention to the potential for malignant hepatic mesenchymal hamartoma transformation.
