Adult Hepatocellular Lesions: Diagnosis and Differential Diagnosis
نویسنده
چکیده
Hepatocellular lesions can be neoplastic or non-neoplastic. The common non-neoplasms include regenerative hyperplasia, focal accumulation of fat, focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH), macroregenerative nodules (MRN), and nodular regenerative hyperplasia (NRH). The neoplasms include hepatic adenomas, hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) and their variants. Accurate diagnosis of these lesions can be sometimes difficult, particularly in liver biopsy specimens. I will briefly discuss the main characteristics of each of these lesions.
