β¦ Synopsis
Intracystic slow bleeding is very difficult to diagnose using conventional sonography; consequently, a new sonographic technique has been sought. We present a histologically proven hepatobiliary cystadenoma with intracystic bleeding in which contrastenhanced sonography (CEUS) showed microbubbles oozing from the cyst wall into the cystic cavity 10 minutes after intravenous injection of contrast medium. CEUS is an important diagnostic tool for diagnosing liver tumors, but the CEUS finding of slow intracystic bleeding has not been reported. Our observation suggests that this technique may be a new diagnostic tool for this purpose. V

We report the case of a 82-year-old man with primary carcinoid tumor of the liver. Abdominal ultrasonography (US) showed 2 well-demarcated, round tumors in the right lobe (4 Γ 4 cm and 1 Γ 1 cm). The lesions were both markedly echogenic with many small cystic areas. Contrast-enhanced US showed the w

Ordinarily, the condition is not detected until puberty, with the onset of the menstrual cycle, although an in
