Abstract

Inflammatory pseudotumor of the liver, which is rarely seen, can mimic abscesses, metastases, peripheral cholangiocarcinomas and hepatocellular carcinomas. While it has no specific clinical and laboratory findings, detection of a "target-like appearance" in triphasic CT and MRI examination may be differentiated from other liver pathologies. In this report, triphasic CT and MRI findings of an inflammatory pseudotumor of the liver were presented.
