Figures

Figure 1
Figure 1
A lateral ultrasonographic image demonstrating the presence of a fluid (asterix) filled density (arrow heads) that seems to be originating from the liver (L) parenchyma.
Figure 2
Figure 2
A series of axial computed tomography (CT) images demonstrating the appearance of the radiolucent density (white asterix) that originates from a single lobe of the liver (L). This is clearly outlined by a black arrow that identifies the fissure found between liver lobes on the left side of the scan (your right hand side). Both the spleen (SP) and stomach (ST) are visualized on these images.
Figure 3
Figure 3
A) A lateral computed tomography (CT) reconstruction demonstrating the mass (asterix) in the dorsal part of the cranial quadrant of the abdomen and originating from the liver. B) A coronal oblique CT reconstruction again outlining the mass between the left lobes of the liver and the stomach. C) Color CT reconstruction of the mass within the liver outlined by arrowheads.
Figure 4
Figure 4
A 2.5-mm thick axial computed tomography (CT) image demonstrating the enhanced periphery of the mass (asterix) suggesting that it is enclosed within hepatic tissues (white arrows). The density within the lesion does not enhance with the iodine-based contrast agent and thereby is most probably a fluid-filled center that represents a previous intrahepatic hemorrhage. In this case, it was the result of the detrimental combination of a hepatic infarct secondary to hepatic fibrosis and copper storage disease.
