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 someti...

INTRODUCTION Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are able to demonstrate and to diagnose hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia when a typical pattern of a well-circumscribed lesion with a central scar is present.Our aim is to propose the split-bolus multidetector-row computed tomography technique as an alternative to the conventional triphasic technique in the detection and character...

Liver cell adenoma and focal nodular hyperplasia are benign conditions, often encountered in young and middle aged female patients. They can present acutely, but more often are diagnosed incidentally during investigation of abnormal liver function tests or vague abdominal pain. We present four cases, which contrast the diagnosis and management of focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) and liver cell a...

Focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver in a 3 year old child has been successfully treated by ligation of the hepatic artery branches supplying the lesion. The prominence of the abnormal vasculature in the lesion and its possible aetiological involvement is stressed. Because of the risks of partial hepatectomy, hepatic artery ligation is suggested as the treatment of choice for focal nodular hy...

Anatomical and functional vascular changes during rat urinary bladder carcinogenesis were studied by scanning electron microscopy of vascular casts, transmission electron microscopy of bladder capillaries, and fractional distributions of 51Cr-erythrocytes, 125I-human serum albumin, and 86RbCl which were used to determine vascular volume, permeability, and perfusion. Histopathological changes an...

Benign lymphoid hyperplasia of the conjunctiva occurs infrequently in children, and its presentation, clinical course, and appropriate management are not well established. We describe 2 children with nasal conjunctival masses that on pathological examination demonstrated benign lymphoid hyperplasia. Local irradiation of residual tissue was deferred, and the lesions remained stable for 1 year in...

Herein, we describe our experience in treating a case of primary pulmonary mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma detected as a nodular opacity. A 79-year-old man was referred to our hospital. Computed tomography showed a nodular opacity measuring 20 mm in diameter with regular margins in segment 5 of the right middle lobe of the lung. Although the bronchoscopic brush cytology result was cl...
