Figure: benign, well-limited hepatocellular tumor with major haemorrhagic foci and telangiectasia on histology. Beside Focal Nodular Hyperplasia and hepatocellular adenomas, the most frequent benign hepatocellular lesion in the liver, a variant, initially called «telangiectatic focal nodular hyperplasia» now claimed as “telangiectatic adenoma” has been described recently. Initially observed in ...

Focal nodular hyperplasia is the second most common benign hepatic tumor. Unlike adenoma as well as the malignant neoplasms, focal nodular hyperplasia can often be managed successfully without surgery. Use of liver-specific contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging allows clinicians to confirm the diagnosis noninvasively in some patients, allowing select patients to avoid surgery. We report ...

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...

Objective: To determine if the hepatobiliary phase of gadoxetate disodium-enhanced hepatic MRI increases the sensitivity in differentiating focal nodular hyperplasia from hepatocellular adenomas. Design: Prospective analysis. Methods: This study was comprised of 52 patients (2 men, 50 women) with suspicion of hepatocellular adenomas or with focal nodular hyperplasia on a previous CT or conventi...
