Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) has been well characterized in native livers, but to our knowledge, no cases of FNH have been described in liver allografts. We review the clinicopathological features of 6 FNHs identified in 4 patients after orthotopic liver transplantation. There were 3 male patient
Purpose. To assess the value of parametric imaging during contrast-enhanced sonographic examination in the diagnosis of focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) of the liver. Materials and Methods. Thirty-one patients with solitary FNH underwent contrast-enhanced sonographic examination between January 2003
## Abstract Nodular regenerative hyperplasia (NRH), a rare condition that is commonly associated with noncirrhotic portal hypertension, is not well described in the MR literature. Three patients at two institutions were identified who had both abdominal MR imaging and pathologic evidence of NRH. Al
