Abstract

Hepatic lipomas are extremely rare lesions. Because these lesions are asymptomatic, they are usually discovered incidentally. There is no risk of malignant degeneration, and because the imaging appearance of lipomas is characteristic, percutaneous biopsy or surgery is usually unnecessary. We present a 52-year-old woman with abdominal pain and hepatic mass (38x30 mm in diameter) compatible with lipoma on ultrasonography and computed tomography.

Özet

Karaciğerde lipomatöz tümörler oldukça nadir görülen lezyonlardır. Bu lezyonların çoğunlukla asemptomatik olması nedeniyle genellikle radyolojik incelemelerde tesadüfen tanı almaktadırlar. Malign dejenerasyon riski olmaması, radyolojik görünümünün karakteristik olması nedeniyle perkütan biyopsi veya cerrahi gerekli değildir. Karın ağrısı şikayetleri ile başvuran ve yapılan ultrasonografi ve bilgisayarlı tomografide karaciğerde 38x30 mm boyutunda hepatik lipom ile uyumlu lezyon saptanan 52 yaşındaki kadın hastayı sunduk.
