Core Tip Because hepatic inflammatory pseudotumors (IPTs) are considered benign lesions and their natural clinical course advances toward regression, it is extremely critical to establish the most accurate diagnosis and not to regard them as malignant neoplasms that may lead to needless surgical excisions. However, accurately diagnosing hepatic IPTs can be very challenging, likely attributable to the fact that the clinical presentation and radiological appearances are nonspecific and cannot be certainly distinguished from malignant neoplastic processes. Management options include conservative treatment, and if failed, surgical resection. Histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis of the hepatic lesion yields the definitive diagnosis.
