Abstract
Hepatic sinusoidal dilatation (HSD) may be associated with venous outflow impairment such as hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, Budd-Chiari syndrome, or cardiac disease. In the absence of hepatic venous obstruction, HSD may be related to several other diseases, such as certain systemic inflammatory disorders, granulomatous and neoplastic diseases, and hematological malignancies (1, 2). It may also be related to systemic chemotherapy for malignancy such as colorectal cancer, pregnancy, and oral contraceptive use (3-5). Here, we describe ultrasonography (US), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings of the HSD in our case. We report the useful MRI finding of HSD that it has connection to the hepatic or portal vein, reliably identified on the hepatobiliary phase (HBP).
