Right hepatic lobe agenesis associated with bile duct carcinoma.

A patient with obstructive jaundice was found to have bile duct carcinoma and right hepatic lobe agenesis. The diagnosis was made by computed tomography (CT), cholangiography, and angiography. Right hepatic lobe agenesis is a rare anomaly and has never been previously reported with bile duct carcinoma. CT cholangiography was critical in diagnosing the morphologic anomalies of the bile duct in this case.

Confluent hepatic fibrosis in cirrhosis: ferumoxides-enhanced MR imaging findings.

We describe ferumoxides-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging findings in a 60-year-old man with confluent hepatic fibrosis in advanced cirrhosis. The extension and internal structure of confluent fibrosis were well demonstrated with ferumoxides-enhanced proton-density spin-echo magnetic resonance images, showing a wedge-shaped area of high signal intensity corresponding to the extension of fibrosis and internal focal areas of low signal intensity, presumably corresponding to residual functioning liver parenchyma. This case suggests a potential utility of ferumoxides-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging for characterizing this tumor-mimicking disorder.
