Popis: | Only a few reports described the unusual imaging findings of necrosis and nodular regeneration in patients with acute liver failure. Herein, we report on one case with acute liver failure secondary to drug-induced liver injury. This patient underwent abdominal CT scan twice with an interval of 32 days. The second imaging findings were found to be significantly abnormal, and the multifocal areas were identified to be necrosis and nodular regeneration by histopathologic evaluation. The dynamic changes of the imaging findings could reflect the characteristic progress of acute liver failure. |
