Very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) cholesterol is produced in the liver and released into the bloodstream to supply body tissues with a type of fat (triglycerides). There are several types of cholesterol, each made up of lipoproteins and fats. Each type of lipoprotein contains a mixture of cholesterol, protein and triglycerides, but in varying amounts. About half of a VLDL particle is made up of triglycerides.
Hemangioma of the Liver. A liver hemangioma is a benign (noncancerous) mass that grows in the liver. A liver hemangioma is made up of blood vessels that are tangled and contain blood and is less than 4 centimeters (1.5 inches) in size. Sometimes liver hemangiomas can be larger than this, or there may be several present in the liver.
A hemangioma is an abnormal buildup of blood vessels in the skin or internal organs. Two types of hemangiomas are discussed here: Hemangioblastoma: These tumors are benign, slow-growing, and well defined. They arise from cells in the linings of blood vessels.
