Grossly, a lot of soft white nodules, 0.5～1.5 cm in diameter, were randomly scattered in liver of a slaughtered Korean Native Cattle. The surface of liver was roughened by those nodules. Histopathologically the nodules were consisted of numerous mature blood vessels, which had variable size and wall thickness, and which were encircled by much connective tissue. Masson’s trichrome stain clearly revealed the proliferated blood vessels and perivascular stroma and, immunohistochemical staining revealed that endothelial cells of proliferated blood vessels were positive for Von Willebrand Factor. Based on gross and histopathological lesions, and immunohistochemical staining, the case was confirmed as hepatic vascular hamartoma and it is the first case report in Korea, as far as we know.
