Congenital focal nodular hyperplasia-like lesion mimicking hepatoblastoma: anecdotal but plausible.

ABSTRACT: Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH)-like lesions of the liver are rare in the pediatric population and are seldom reported as congenital lesions. The differential diagnosis between these lesions and pure-fetal hepatoblastoma (HBL) is challenging. We present a case of a congenital FNH-like hepatic lesion, managed with a right hepatectomy due to suspected fetal HBL. Additionally, a review of all published cases of congenital FNH-like lesions of the liver was carried out.MRI.
