Liver is the most common site for neuroendocrine metastasis. However, primary neuroendocrine tumor is a rare focal hepatic lesion with a better prognosis than hepatocellular carcinoma and other malignant hepatic lesions. We present a case of primary hepatic neuroendocrine tumor in a 38-year-old female patient with a radiological diagnosis of atypical focal hepatic lesion, and a confirmed diagnosis on histopathology. Few radiology features like predominant cystic component with absence of focal lesion at any other site, aids the imaging diagnosis of primary hepatic neuroendocrine tumor.
肝脏是神经内分泌转移最常见的部位。然而,原发性神经内分泌肿瘤是一种罕见的肝脏局灶性病变,其预后比肝细胞癌和其他肝脏恶性病变要好。我们报告一例38岁女性原发性肝脏神经内分泌肿瘤病例,该病例经放射学诊断为非典型肝脏局灶性病变,并经组织病理学确诊。一些放射学特征,如以囊性成分为主且其他任何部位均无局灶性病变,有助于原发性肝脏神经内分泌肿瘤的影像诊断。
