Abstract
|
|
|
This paper presents an unusual solid mesenchymal hamartoma of the liver (MHL) in adult. A well defined
solid mass in the left lobe of the liver was found in a 57-year-old female. Preoperative radiologic
examinations demonstrated solid mass with multifocal calcifications abutting the gallbladder. By light
microscopy, the lesion was composed of dense fibrous stroma with hyalinization, bile ducts and thick-walled
vessels without hepatocytes. The solid and hyalinized mesenchymal component would suggest an unusual
degenerative change representing a burnt-out MHL.
