A RESECTED CASE OF FOCAL NODULAR HYPERPLASIA (FNH) WITH NODULAR REGENERATIVE HYPERPLASIA OF THE LIVER

Nodular regenerative hyperplasia of the liver.

Nodular regenerative hyperplasia (NRH), characterized by diffuse hepatic micronodular transformation in groups without fibrous septa between the nodules, is a rare benign liver lesion that has many synonyms in previous literature. Pathologic evaluation is the mainstay of accurate diagnosis. Treatment is focused on its underlying conditions and complications of portal hypertension. A 39-year-old...

[Focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver. A case report].

Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) of the liver is a benign disorder that usually occurs in women during their reproductive years. Multiple FNH is very rare. A case of multiple FNH of the liver occurring in a 34-year-old woman is described. FNH diagnosis was confirmed by means of US, CT, MR, scintigraphy and hepatic biopsy. There was no further change in either size or appearance of liver masses i...

Nodular Regenerative Hyperplasia

Introduction: Nodular regenerative hyperplasia (NRH) is a known etiology of noncirrhotic portal hypertension. Cases of biopsy-proven NRH in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)–positive patients have been described. While these patients often have normal synthetic liver function, several reports described disease progression to liver failure. Case: We here present a 26-year-old woman with history...
