Neuroendocrine tumour of liver: a case report.
Pak J Surg Jan ;24(1):71-3.

Neuroendocrine tumours of the liver are rare. This is the case report of a woman, 28 years of age, who presented with right upper abdominal pain, fever and abdominal mass for six weeks duration. Ultrasonography of the abdomen revealed hepatomegaly with two cystic mass lesions diagnosed as hydatid cysts, though her Ecchinococcus antibody titre was normal. A laparotomy was carried out which showed enlarged liver with a knobbly mass, partially cystic and partially solid, arising from the inferior surface of the right lobe of the liver. Partial right hepatectomy was performed. The histopathology report revealed it to be a neuroendocrine tumour of the liver.
