PURPOSE To evaluate lesion enhancement performance of Multi-Arterial CAIPIRINHA-Dixon-TWIST-Volume-Interpolated Breath-Hold Examination (MA-CDT-VIBE) for the detection of hepatic metastases. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-one patients with suspicious hepatic metastases were enrolled in this retrospective study. Two independent radiologists scored visualization of each lesion on a scale of 1 (po...

We report a case of primary hepatic peripheral T-cell lymphoma in a patient with hepatitis B virus-related cirrhosis. This patient presented with a solitary hepatic lesion with computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging features that did not resemble hepatocellular carcinoma. Subsequent biopsy of the lesion revealed that it was a peripheral T-cell lymphoma. The patient was successfully ...

BACKGROUND Lobular capillary hemangioma (LCH) is a benign vascular tumor that is rare in adults and has never been reported in the liver. This vascular lesion usually presents on the skin or mucous membranes, and predominantly affects children. METHODS LCH as a large asymptomatic hepatic mass was seen in a 35-year-old female. Imaging and pathologic characteristics of the mass are reviewed, an...

Microcirculation lesion is a common symptom of chronic liver diseases in the form of vasculature deformation and circulation alteration. In acute to chronic liver diseases such as biliary atresia, microcirculation lesion can have an early onset. Detection of microcirculation lesion is meaningful for studying the progression of liver disease. We have combined wide-field fluorescence microscopy a...

A 63-yr-old woman, known case of ulcerative colitis, was diagnosed with sclerosing cholangitis 2 years back. She was admitted for investigation of abdominal discomfort, fatigue with elevated alkaline phosphatase and deranged liver function test. Imaging studies (computerised tomography and magnetic resonance imaging) demonstrated a normal biliary tree with focal hepatic lesion which was showing...

Pseudoaneurysm (PA) of the hepatic artery is a rare complication abdominal trauma, iatrogenic injuries (biopsy, endoscopic cholecystectomy, liver transplantation), infections, tumors, vasculitis, acute and chronic pancreatitis. This case report presents life-threatening complications in patient who underwent surgery for lesion. Due to use CT angiography, it was possible determine cause bleeding...

A 65 years old male presented with abdominal pain (R.U.Q) and constipation, associated with weight loss and anorexia since 40 days prior to admission. Serum biochemical tests were normal. Colonoscopy showed hemorrhagic polypoid lesion in the cecum. Barium enema revealed filling defect in the cecum. Sonography revealed a target-shaped lesion (3cm×2.5cm) in upper segment of the right hepati...

Hepatic splenosis, one type of manifestation of ectopic spleen tissue, is rarely reported. It cannot be distinguished from hepatic malignancies because of lack of significant radiological features. By means of this case report and 31 literature reviews, potential treatment modalities concerning clinical diagnostics, patient’s management could be discussed. The report presents the case of a 33-y...

Primary hepatic angiosarcoma is a rare and rapidly fatal disease. We present the highly unusual identification of this lesion five years after the initial clinical presentation.In 2003, a 32-year-old man presented with abdominal pain, tachycardia, and evidence of hemorrhage. A CT scan showed a hepatic mass with intralesional hemorrhage, intraperitoneal blood, and splenomegaly. The patient was s...
