| Abstract | Splenosis refers to autotransplantation of splenic tissue into intraabdominal, intrathoracic or even any other parts of body and occurs after splenic trauma or splenectomy. Hepatic splenosis is usually incidental found during imaging workup. It can mimic other hypervascular mass because it presents vivid and heterogeneous enhancement representing that of splenic tissue. So far, about 20 cases of intrahepatic splenosis have been described in the literature. Herein we report a case of intrahepatic splenosis mimicking hepatocellular carcinoma in a patient with liver cirrhosis. The patient was finally diagnosed on the basis of specific radionuclide imaging. |
