Focal nodular hyperplvasia (FNH) is a rare benign hepatic tumor that likely represents a local hyperplastic response of hepatocytes to a congenital vascular anomaly. FNH is typically asymtomatic and has a benign course. Hepatic resection is performed when the lesions are large, symptomatic and complicated or when the diagnosis remains uncertain. Although many cases of FNH in children have been described to date in other countries, only one Korean case of multiple FNH has been reported on English literature. We recently experienced a rare case of multiple FNH in a 10-year-old boy, that was confirmed by right inferior subsegmentectomy, left lateral segmentectomy and left medial tumorectomy. We report this case with brief review of literature.

Eyelid tumors, including metastatic lid tumors, present clinically as recurrent chalazia, multicentric nodules, ul cerated lesions, diffuse swelling, or chronic blepharocon juntivitis. Lid tumors consist of benign lesions(69%) and malignant lesions(31%). Basal cell carcinoma and squa mous cell carcinoma account for 92% of the malignant lesions. Metastatic lid disease was found to be of rare occurence, accounting for 0.1% of all lid lesions and 0.3% of malignant lid lesions. We report a case of metastatic lid carcinoma of sto mach cancer. A 60-year-old man developed a painless, slow-growing nodular lesion of his right lower eyelid. Excisional biopsy revealed metastatic undifferentiated ade nocarcinoma. We believe this is the first case in Korean literature.
