Suggest Treatment For Liver Hemangioma

My husband has a liver hemangioma....it was found in 2003 to be about 1.5 cm in size. He had an ultrasound a few days ago and it showed that it has increased in size to about 5.3 cm. We will be seeing a specialist...what will the options for treatment be? Or will they just continue to check it for growth in the future?
