Chondroid hamartoma of the liver

Abstract

A 60-year-old patient presented with a solitary mass within the right hepatic lobe. Diagnostic imaging revealed a solid tumor on the diameter of 3 cm. In absence of any extrahepatic manifestation and based on FNAC findings the lesion was classisfied a primary hepatic chondroid sarcoma. However, after right hemihepatectomy histologic assessment resulted the final diagnosis of a benign chondroid hamartoma. Our findings add another variant to the versatile phenotype of liver hamartoma.
