Segmental atrophy (SA) of the liver is a rare, often underrecognized, benign condition that presents as a mass lesion, mimicking a neoplasm, which poses a significant diagnostic challenge. Given its rarity, only a limited number of case reports and series have been published, resulting in sparse literature on the entity. This review aims to summarize the clinicopathologic and diagnostic features of SA and thus improve its recognition.
肝脏节段性萎缩(SA)是一种罕见的、常未被充分认识的良性疾病,表现为肿块性病变,酷似肿瘤,这构成了重大的诊断挑战。鉴于其罕见性,仅发表了有限数量的病例报告和系列研究,导致关于该实体的文献稀少。本综述旨在总结SA的临床病理和诊断特征,从而提高对其的认识。
