In four cases of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (HEHE), multiple liver lesions were depicted on enhanced computed tomography (CT) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. A peculiar sign, a hepatic or portal vein terminating at or just within the periphery of some of the liver lesions, was noted in all four; the images look like a lollipop. Imaging findings of HEHE can suggest other diseases, but this sign buttressed by other radiological findings, seems to be specific for this entity.
在4例肝上皮样血管内皮瘤(HEHE)患者中,增强计算机断层扫描(CT)和/或磁共振成像(MRI)扫描显示肝脏有多个病灶。在所有4例患者中均发现一个特殊征象,即肝静脉或门静脉在某些肝脏病灶的边缘或刚好在其内部终止;图像看起来像棒棒糖。HEHE的影像学表现可能提示其他疾病,但这个征象结合其他影像学表现,似乎对该疾病具有特异性。
