Abstract
Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) is the second most common benign hepatic mass. The primary purpose of this article is to provide a relevant case study and offer a review of the recent literature related to FNH with a discussion of both the clinical and imaging findings of this classically benign hepatic lesion. Although magnetic resonance imaging is considered the gold standard of FNH imaging, the sonographic and computed tomography appearance also is offered in this article. Furthermore, contrast-enhanced ultrasound, which boasts a 96% success rate at differentiating FNH from other hepatic tumors, is analyzed. The historical treatment options, including medical and possible surgical intervention, are provided as well. Last, this article offers an analysis of the prognosis for the patient diagnosed with FNH.
