Sixteen cases of focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) of the liver were followed by ultrasound (US) for a mean of 33 months (range 6-81). In 69% of the cases, the diagnosis was incidental. On US the lesions were single in 75% of the cases, localized in the right lobe in 75%, and subcapsular in 50%. No sp
Nodular regenerative hyperplasia has not previously been reported in patients who have undergone orthotopic liver transplantation. In this report we describe the clinical, biochemical and histologic findings in nine liver transplant recipients in whom nodular regenerative hyperplasia developed betwe
Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) of the liver is a benign tumor commonly considered as a reactive disorder related to a pre-existing vascular malformation. However, the pathogenesis of this lesion has been recently discussed. To determine whether FNH is a polyclonal or a clonal lesion, we investigate
