[A case of hypervascular hyperplastic nodule in chronic alcoholic liver disease with corona-like enhancement in the late phase image of CT during hepatic arteriography].

: A 46-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with hepatic encephalopathy due to alcoholic liver disease. A hepatic nodule (20 mm in diameter) in S7 was enhanced in the early phase of contrast CT. No significant findings were observed in the late phase of contrast CT and SPIO MRI. The late phase of CT during hepatic arteriography showed corona-like enhancement of the nodule. The nodule was diagnosed as a hypervascular hyperplastic nodule, based on histological examinations and immunohistochemical results with antibodies against CD68 and CD34.
