True Incidence of Benign Liver Lesion: Unknown
French Statistics on Benign Liver Tumors ◦ Cyst and hemangiomas: most frequent ◦ FNH: 0.1% ◦ HCA: 0.03% (FNH:Adenoma = 3.3:1) ◦ M:F = 1:9 ◦ Obesity
Prevalance in Korea
How we manage in environment of high incidence
of HBV and HCV
Chronic Liver disease including Liver Cirrhosis: ◦ 8th cause of death in Korea in 2012 (13.5/100,000)
Liver cancer: ◦ 4th most common cancer (48.6/100,000) ◦ 2nd highest cancer mortality in Korean male in 2012
(33.7/100,000)

M:F = 3.8:6.2 % (n=6,307)
Hemangioma 257 4.07
Cyst 166 2.63
Abscess 30 0.48
Eosinophilic Abscess (T. canis F. hepatica) 24 0.38
FNH and AML 15 0.24

METS 154 ADPKD 7
EHD ca. 7 biliary cystadenoma 6

angiosarcoma 1 IPMN 1 epithelioid hemangioendothelioma 1 FNH, biopsy only 1 Lympho-epithelioma like ca. 1 hemangioma, biopsy 1
NET 1 adenoma 1
Total 668 63
Very few adenoma Angiomyolipoma: major concern
8 cases (largest Korean HCA series in pathology) M:F = 4:4 ◦ HNF1α-mutated HA 3 (1:2) 35-40% ◦ β-Catenin mutated HA 1 (0:1) 10-15% ◦ Inflammatory HA 4 (3:1) >50% ◦ Unclassified HA 0
Few reported cases of HCA in Korea. ◦ Limited use of oral contraceptives in Korea due to Fear of side effects ◦ High prevalence of tubal ligation and vasectomy (1960~1980)

84 cases (1997-2009, single Korean center) ◦ M:F =39:45 (46.4%:53.6%) ◦ 77 FNH (HBV (+) in 2) ◦ 7 FNH like nodules: underlying LC (Budd-chiari 2, Cardiac LC 1)
◦ Surgical biopsy 28 (33.3%) ◦ Percutaneous biopsy 56 (66.7%) > 2 times: 7
◦ High-Low pattern in multiphasic CT: 10/78 (12.8%) Of 9 HBV or HCV (+), 3 were diagnosed as HCC by AASLD guideline
◦ Needle Bx: 6.5% (4/62) diagnosed as HCC

FNH: EOB uptake (+) ◦ > 95%
Adenoma: Usually not Malignant tumor: No EOB uptake
◦ Green HCC (5-10%): EOB uptake (+) : confusing
Hemangioma: No typical delayed enhancement ◦ Masked by strong parenchymal enhancement
Hyperintese HCCs more commonly show ◦ Focal defects in uptake ( 68.8 vs. 3.1%) ◦ Nodule in nodule appearance ( 75% vs. 0%) ◦ Internal septation (50% vs. 3.1%) ◦ Absence of a central scar (100% vs. 46.9%) ◦ Hypointense rim (75% vs. 15.6%)

Mild hypermetabolsm, SUV 3.0
Epithelioid AML
Korea: very low incidence of adenoma, M=F ◦ FNH / FNH like nodules: not so rare
MRI with hepatobiliary contrast agent: Helpful in differentiating Benign Hepatocellular masses from HCC (EOB uptake)
Benign hypervascular mass without EOB uptake (like AML) – diagnostic challenge
