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...

liver lesion is a common condition, which often detect incidentally. a large proportion of liver masses can be diagnosed by progression in imaging modalities. although, definite diagnosis of liver mass's nature can be made by biopsy of lesion and histopathologic examination, but with imaging findings, we can approach to the diagnosis. in this study, we review many valuable articles and scientif...

Focal nodular hyperplasia is a benign liver tumour that is rare in children. We report the second case of a child with sickle cell disease presenting with symptomatic focal nodular hyperplasia. The possible pathogenesis of focal nodular hyperplasia and the association with sickle cell disease are discussed.

Focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver, neoplasia of the brain, and intracranial vascular malformations have recently been described as a new syndrome. We report three cases of focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver with intracranial vascular anomalies. Two patients died from ruptured berry aneurysm. It is important to consider intracranial pathology in patients with focal nodular hyperplasia o...

While regression of focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver is not uncommon, reports of near-complete involution or regression of these lesions are rare. We report two cases of focal nodular hyperplasia that underwent near-complete regression-one in a 27-year-old female that regressed over a period of 4 years, and one in a 46-year-old female that regressed over a 7-year period. Both patients dis...

Focal nodular hyperplasia and nodular regenerative hyperplasia are occasionally seen in patients with hepatic venous outflow obstruction as a consequence of circulatory stress in the liver. In addition, neoplastic processes such as hepatic adenoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and metastatic disease may arise in these patients. Histologic evaluation is necessary when imaging modalities are unable ...

Hepatic hemangioma, adenoma and focal nodular hyperplasia are the most frequent benign lesions of the liver, but they are all infrequent among pediatric population. The reports of focal nodular hyperplasia in children have recently increased in number, with many cases associated to drug intake, particularly to chemotherapy. We here describe, to our knowledge, the first case of focal nodular hyp...
