Fig. 2A. 70-year-old man with history of pancreatic carcinoma. Hepatic
pseudolesion was visualized on CT and characterized as benign on MR imaging by
initial and expert intepreters. Lesion was not visible on unenhanced T1- and
T2-weighted MR images (not shown). Patient underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy
and intraoperative sonography, and surgical palpation of liver revealed no
lesion in area of abnormality seen on CT. Postoperative CT of liver and
clinical follow-up did not reveal hepatic metastasis during following 12
months. Patient developed metastatic disease 18 months after surgery and
eventually died of pancreatic cancer. Arterial phase CT scan shows 1-cm area
of low attenuation (arrowhead) in right hepatic lobe immediately
adjacent to gallbladder fossa.
