Objective To investigate the imaging manifestations and pathogenesis of liver focal nodular hyperplasia-like(FNH-like)lesions in patients undergoing antineoplastic chemotherapy.Methods The clinical and imaging data of focal nodular hyperplasia(FNH)and FNH-like lesions patients confirmed by pathology after antineoplastic chemotherapy were analyzed retrospectively.Results A total of 67 FNH-like nodules were detected in 15 patients after antineoplastic chemotherapy,including multiple FNH nodules in 8 cases and sin-gle nodule in 7 cases.The mean detected time of FNH-like nodules was(18.9±11.7)months.Central scarring could be observed during follow-up in 5 nodules,and the rest showed atypical FNH features.Among 45 nodules examined with hepatocyte-specific con-trast medium,36 nodules showed slightly high signal in the hepatobiliary phase and other 9 nodules showed isosignal.Conclusion FNH-like lesions in patients during antineoplastic chemotherapy have certain imaging features,such as lack of central scarring,gener-ally smaller nodules,delayed enhancement,and hyperenhancement in hepatobiliary-specific phase,which are of significant value in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the disease.
