✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Spontaneous necrosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is rare. We report the case of a 72‐year‐old woman with an HCC nodule that underwent necrosis after sonographically guided needle biopsy. Baseline sonographic examination revealed only a nonspecific change in the echogenicity of the lesion. Subsequent necrosis was suggested on contrast‐enhanced sonographic examination and was confirmed on spiral CT. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound, 2008
