국소 결절성 과형성은 섬유성 격막에 의해 나누어지는 간세포와 Kupffer 세포의 결절로 이루어진 양성 종괴이다. 방사선학적으로 다른 종괴와 유사한 소견을 보이나 그 예후와 치료는 달라 감별이 요구된다. 저자들이 경험한 증례는 조영 후 영상을 조영전기영상과 조영후기영상으로 분리함으로써 종괴의 혈류형태를 관찰할 수 있는 급속조영 CT를 설시하여 감별진단에 도움을 받을 수 있었고 병리조직학적으로 국소 결절성 과형성으로 확인된, 급속조영 CT 설시 후 국내에서 보고되는 최초의 증례이다.

Hepatic Focal Nodular Hyperplasia(FNH)는 아주 드문 간 양성 질환으로 우연히 발견되는 수가 않다. FNH의 신티그램 소견은 다양하다. 즉 56%에서는 신티그램상 이상소견이 발견되지 않으며 17%에서는 냉소로 나타나고 나머지 7%에서는 열소로 나타난다. 저자들은 상복부 동통을 호소하는 25세된 여자 환자에서 간 신티그램상 이상소견을 발견할 수 없었던 FNH 1예를 경험하였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.

We present two cases of surgically proven focal nodular hyperplasia whou underwent tri contrast-enhance MR imaging using gadolinium chelates, mangafodipir trisodium, and ferumoxides After the unehanced MR images were obtained, dynamic gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted imagi were performed, then mangafodipir enhanced and ferumoxides-enhanced images were obtained. In one case, the mass was isointense on both T1- and T2-weighted images on the unehanced M images, iso and slightly hyperintense on ferumoxides-enhanced FSE and GRE images, strong hyperintense on the mangafodipir enhanced and gadolinium enhanced arterial phase images. In th other case, the mass was isointense on T2-weighted and hypointense on T1-weighted image isointense on ferumoxides-enhanced images, and hyperintense on mangafodipir enhanced an gadolinium enhanced arterial phase images. Triple contrast enhanced MR images were useful correctly diagnose these two cases preoperatively.

Insulinoma, which arises from insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells, is a rare tumor in children. Only 5%-10% of insulinomas are malignant and undergo metastasis. We report a case of an 11-year-old girl who experienced hypoglycemia-related seizures induced by an insulinoma; after resection of the primary tumor, she developed hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH). Laboratory test results indicated marked hypoglycemia with hyperinsulinemia. Abdominal ultrasonography (US) and computed tomography results were normal; however, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a solid mass in the pancreatic tail. Therefore, laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy was performed. Two months after the surgery, an abdominal MRI revealed multiple nodular lesions in the liver. An US-guided liver biopsy was then performed, and histological examination revealed FNH without necrosis or mitotic activity. The patient has been free of hypoglycemia for 2 years, and recent MRI studies showed a decrease in the size of FNH lesions, without any evidence of metastasis. Even though no metastatic lesions are noted on imaging, close observation and follow-up imaging studies are required in a child with insulinoma that has malignant potential on histopathologic findings.

Majority of hepatocellular carcinoma is evolved from a well differentiated cancerous condition such as hyperplastic lesions eg. adenomatous hyperplasia in cirrhotic liver or de no vo carcinogenesis and prolifenation along with dedifferentiation. Adenomatous hyperplasia is may be seen in severe acute hepatic injury, like submassive hepatic necrosis, or in chronic liver diseases, particularly liver cirrhosis and it has recently attracted much interest from both clinicians and pathologists because it is regarded as a precursor lesion of hepatocellular carcinoma. Hepatic adenomatous hyperplasia resembling focal nodular hyperplasia might have developed from localized vascular changes associated with chronic liver disease, pre-existing arterial malformation and early stage of angiogenesis in hepatocarcinogenesis. We present a patient who developed hepatocellular carcinoma after hepatic artery ligation.

A small number of pathologic entities such as Budd-Chiari Syndrome, cirrhosis, focal nodular hyperplasia, and superior and inferior vena cava obstruction has been reported to result in focal areas of increased uptake of radiocolloid on the hepatoscintigram. We recently studied a patient with focal accumulation of $^{99m}Tc-phytate$ at the inferior aspect of the liver, at the junction of the right and left lobe. The superior vena cava scintiangiogram was taken for the evaluation of the superior vena cava obstruction and collateral circulations. As a result of superior vena caval obstruction a considerable amount of blood flowed to the liver through the anterior parietal and periumblical venous channels. A certain fraction of radiocolloid delivered by the rete mirabile perfused to a localized area of the liver. This would explain the hot spot around the porta hepatis in this case.

Colloid uptake in various hepatic conditions such as focal nodular hyperplasia, regenerating nodules in the cirrhotic liver, hamartoma, hemangioma and rarely hepatoma has been documented. Extrahepatic tumors may show colloid uptake and they include splenic hemangioma, malignant fibrous histiocytoma, breast carcinoma and Kaposi's sarcoma. The mechanism of colloid uptake in those lesions is associated with phagocytic activity in or around the tumors. We report a pancreas islet cell tumor that showed colloid uptake on $^{99m}Tc$-phytate liver scan without histologic evidence of phagocytosis by tumor cells or infiltration of phagocytes in the tumor Microscopically the tumor was highly vascular and showed diffuse hemorrhage throughtout the tumor. We postulated that extravasation of the colloid into the tumor insterstitium caused nonspecific colloid uptake in this tumor. It is expected that hemorrhagic tumor may show nonspecific colloid uptake without phagocytosis in or about the lesion.

Primary liver tumors are uncommon in childhood, with a relative frequency of 3 % of all childhood tumors. Seventy-three cases of pediatric primary liver tumors operated on at single institution between 1986 and 2002 were reviewed. Malignant tumors included 37 cases of hepatoblastoma, 11 hepatocellular carcinomas, 6 undifferentiated (embryonal) sarcomas, and 1 mixed germ-cell tumor. Benign tumors constitute only 24.6 % of liver tumors, including 7 hemangioendotheliomas, 5 mesenchymal hamartomas, 3 congenital cysts, and one each with focal nodular hyperplasia and hemangioma. The common presenting clinical features were abdominal mass or abdominal distension. Anatomical hepatic resections were carried out in 38 cases, and nonanatomical resections in 34 cases. One patient died of a direct result of hepatic resection (1.4 %). The complication rate was 16.4 %.

In order to know the toxic effect and carcinogenic activity in rats and mice fed with juice of Korean native Petasites japonicus Maxim of its pellet(4% or 8%) which were dried, milled and mixed with basal diet, the investigations were carried out by macroscopy and histopathology. Macroscopically, although remarkable changes were not observed in the liver of mice, there were slight to moderate swelling of rat livers in the whole groups at 12 to 14 weeks after feeding and milky spots in rats fed with its juice and 8% pelleted Petasites japonicus Maxim diet and a normal diet for 1 week alternatively for 14 weeks. Moreover, moderate to severe swelling and milk spots were recognized in livers of all rats fed with its juice and 8% pellet or 8% pelleted Petasites japonicus Maxim for 16 weeks. But, in cases of rats fed with its juice and 4% pellet or 4% pelleted Petasites japonicus Maxim, only swelling of livers was recognized moderately or severely. Histopathologically, major lesions were found in livers of both rats and mice. There were congestion, hemorrhage, fatty change, focal necrosis, megalocytosis and hyperplasia of endothelial cell in livers of mice and rats, the additional lesions such as proliferation of bile duct and nodular regeneration with diffuse regenerating cells were seen in livers of rats. In addition, preneoplastic lesions, the areas of milky spots macroscopically, were observed in livers of rats fed with Petasites japonicus Maxim for 14 to 16 weeks. In a few cases, haemangioendothelial sarcoma in livers was detected in rats fed with Petasites japonicus Maxim for 16 weeks. Petasites japonicus maxim growing naturally in Korea seem to exhibit toxic effect especially in liver and it contained a causative agent of primary liver tumors.
