Multicystic biliary hamartoma (MCBH) is a very rare hamartomatous cystic nodule of the liver, which has recently been described as a new entity of a hepatic nodular lesion. We report a unique case of MCBH with a review of the literatures. A hepatic multicystic mass of segment 3 was detected in a 52-year-old male by abdominal computed tomography, and resection of this lesion was performed. Macro...

conclusion lesion depth from the pleural surface and the presence of emphysema were strongly correlated with the increasing incidence of pneumothorax after ct-guided pcnb. our results may be applicable for the risk management of pcnbs to reduce pneumothorax as a complication. background previous studies identifying risk factors for pneumothorax in percutaneous core needle lung biopsies reported...

RATIONALE Hemangioma of the liver is a benign hepatic tumor, more common in women than in men, which is typically asymptomatic, solitary, and incidentally discovered. Atypical hemangioma is a variant of hepatic hemangioma with atypical imaging finding features on CT and MRI that can be confused with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) and mixed hepatocellular c...

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma makes up 75%-85% of all primary liver cancers and is the fourth most common cause cancer related death worldwide. The aim this study was to screen for hepatocellular in hepatic patients who received direct acting antiviral drugs using different imaging modalities. Methods: This a cross sectional included 50 were Direct Acting Antiviral '' DAA'' carried out a...

Two cases of spontaneous focal hepatic hyperplasia were observed in young female cynomolgus macaques (Macaca fascicularis). Grossly, a single raised nodule was observed in the left hepatic lobe. Histopathologically, the nodule compressed surrounding normal tissue; however, the hepatic cords within the nodule continued to those in the nor mal area except in part. Extensive fibrosis and absence o...

Introduction At 3.0 T MR system, superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-enhanced liver magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may have the theoretical advantage of high SNR and high liver to lesion contrast, because of stronger susceptibility effect compared with that at 1.5 T. On T2*-weighted gradient recalled echo (GRE) sequences essential for SPIO-enhanced liver MRI, positive effects of 3T on lesion-...
