A case of hepatic hernia with echocardiographic findings simulating right atrial tumor

S Fujimoto et al. J Am Soc Echocardiogr. 1998 Jun.

Abstract

A patient with hepatic hernia was found to have echocardiographic findings resembling a right atrial tumor. Magnetic resonance imaging was useful in establishing a definitive diagnosis of hepatic hernia. Hepatic hernias should be ruled out when a right atrial tumor is suspected on the basis of transthoracic echocardiographic findings.
