Abstrakt: Hepatic reactive lymphoid hyperplasia (HRLH) is an uncommon lesion. We present the case of a 58-year-old patient with a liver nodule incidentally found by abdominal ultrasonography (US). Liver function, tumor markers, viral serology and immunology were normal. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a 16 mm nodule in segment VI-VII, with hypervascular enhancement in the arterial phase, wash-out in late phases, without contrast-retention in the hepatobiliary phase and restriction on diffusion-weighted imaging, suggestive of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
