Findings of Fat Containing Hepatocellular Carcinoma on Contrast-enhanced Ultrasound with Sonazoid: A Case Report

Fat containing HCC often presents as hyper-echoic in gray scale ultrasound and confuses the diagnosis. Here we showed a case of fat containing HCC which was diagnosed by CEUS with Sonazoid, and its histopathologic features, immunohistochemical profile, surgical treatment, patient’s follow up information were also presented.
