Benign liver tumors in children are far less frequent than their malignant counterparts. Recently, there have been advances of diagnostic procedures and novel treatments with improved classification as a result. While malignant pediatric liver tumors have been comprehensively addressed by multicenter international tumor trials, benign tumors have more usually relied upon individualised workup and treatment. Due to the rarity and heterogeneity of these different entities, lar ge studies are lacking. In this article the authors highlight the spectrum of benign liver tumors with special focus on specific clinical features, pathology, and treatment. (C) 2020 Published by Elsevier Inc.
