|
|
An inflammatory pseudotumor of the liver is a rare benign tumor, which is frequently misdiagnosed as malignant. A 63 year-old man presented with a 4-month history of weight loss and a 2-month history of intermittent fever and chills. A computed tomographic (CT) scan and magnetic resonance imaging of the abdomen demonstrated a large tumor in segment 8 of the liver. An ultrasound-guided core biopsy confirmed an inflammatory pseudotumor of the liver. His fever persisted for 3 months, despite the administration of Naproxen and antibiotics. A right trisegmentectomy was carried out, after which the fever subsided. The patient has remaineds well for the last 7 months.
