Abstract:
Sclerosing hepatocellular carcinoma is a rare primary hepatocellular neoplasm which is not associated with hepatitis type B and liver cirrhosis. It is characterized by intense fibrosis in which the tubular neoplastic structures are embedded. The authors report a case of sclerosing hepatocellular carcinoma which mimics hemangioma or hypervascular metastatic tumor and on sprial CT shows early enhancement of the cellular component and delayed enhancement of the fibrotic component.
