We examined a patient with a hepatocellular carcinoma and multiple adenomatous hyperplasias in the cirrhotic liver. Helical CT hepatic arteriography (CTA) showed the adenomatous hyperplasias as areas of discrete hypoattenuation, and the combined CT during arterial portography (CTAP) showed corresponding areas of subtle hyperattenuation. Such imaging findings at combined CTA and CTAP were seen in only one patient in a series of more than 80 patients in whom we performed angiographically-assisted CT. We demonstrate these unusual imaging findings of adenomatous hyperplasia in the report.

D006528 Carcinoma, Hepatocellular A primary malignant neoplasm of epithelial liver cells. It ranges from a well-differentiated tumor with EPITHELIAL CELLS indistinguishable from normal HEPATOCYTES to a poorly differentiated neoplasm. The cells may be uniform or markedly pleomorphic, or form GIANT CELLS. Several classification schemes have been suggested.
