Liver tumors in children with chronic liver diseases

Figure 8 Magnetic resonance images of a 7-yr-old boy with tyrosinemia type I and renal Fanconi syndrome presenting nodules with histopathologic findings indicative of hepatocellular carcinoma. He underwent liver transplantation with favorable outcome and no evidence of tumor recurrence after a 1-yr follow-up. A: Multiple hyperintense nodules in T2-weighted (T2W) image; B: Hypointense nodules on the T1W image on the background of macronodular cirrhotic liver; C: Heterogeneous venous “wash-out” enhancement of the nodules; and D: Delayed capsular enhancement after administration of gadolinium-based contrast agent.
