Lipomas can occur almost anywhere in the body, but retroperitoneal lipomas are extremely rare. They are slowly growing benign tumors and can attain an enormous size due to silent course of the disease.

we report two cases of focal nodular hyperplasia in patients following gadoxetic acid (gd-eob-dtpa)-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging confirmed with histopathology. these cases showed an atypical pattern during the delayed-hepatobiliary phase after the injection of gadoxetic acid. one case showed a total defect, and the other showed a peripheral ring-like enhancement without a visible central...
