Core Tip |
Hepatic sparganosis is rare; only two cases have been clinically reported, and no detailed radiologic description was available until now. This report pre-sents radiologic findings of a presumptive case of spar-ganosis manifesting as a hepatic mass. This hepatic mass showed nonenhancing low attenuation mass with bizarrely arranged calcified internal cord-like structures on computed tomography, a necrotic mass with internal serpiginous tubular structures on magnetic resonance imaging, and a well-defined mixed echoic mass with multiple cord-like structures on ultrasonography. The understanding of this case will help physicians to consider the possibility of hepatic sparganosis when they encounter hepatic masses with bizarrely arranged internal serpiginous structures. |
