We present a case of undifferentiated embryonal sarcoma of the liver (UES), an uncommon malignant mesenchymal tumor that occurs predominately in children and is very rarely seen in adults. Our patient is a 32-year-old pregnant female without significant past medical history, who presented to the emergency department with worsening abdominal pain and a large palpable abdominal mass. Imaging identified a large, hemorrhagic right hepatic lobe mass that in retrospect had imaging characteristics most suggestive of UES. Though extremely rare in adults, it is still important to recognize the imaging features of UES as to avoid mistaking it for other more common benign and malignant hepatic masses.
我们报告了一例肝脏未分化胚胎肉瘤(UES),这是一种罕见的恶性间叶组织肿瘤,主要发生在儿童,在成人中非常少见。我们的患者是一名 32 岁的孕妇,无明显既往病史,因腹痛加重和可触及的巨大腹部肿块就诊于急诊科。影像学检查发现一个大的、出血性的右肝叶肿块,回顾性地看,其影像学特征最符合 UES。虽然成人中非常罕见,但仍有必要认识到 UES 的影像学特征,以避免将其误诊为其他更常见的良性和恶性肝肿块。
