Abstract
We report 4-year-old girl who was diagnosed with adrenocortical carcinoma when she was 2 years old. At the time of diagnosis there were no metastases, but 6 months later multiple liver metastases appeared. Following intensive chemotherapy the metastases resolved completely. Multifocal lesions were detected in the liver by US 16 months later. Their morphology on US and MRI differed from the previous metastases. Histopathological examination confirmed focal nodular hyperplasia. We discuss the origin and the uncommon appearance of multifocal nodular hyperplasia in hormone-active tumours such as adrenocortical carcinoma in children.
