Core Tip |
Segmental atrophy (SA) of the liver is a rare pseudotumor that typically presents as a liver mass mimicking a neoplasm. It is usually asymptomatic and most often discovered incidentally. SA is more commonly seen in female patients, with an average age of 59.6 years. The exact pathogenesis remains poorly understood, though it is strongly associated with vascular injury. Histopathologically, the lesion progresses through several stages, ranging from parenchymal collapse to nodular elastosis and eventually nodular fibrosis. Recognizing these distinct morphologic stages is essential for accurate diagnosis. |
