A case of hepatic pseudolymphoma in a patient with primary biliary cirrhosis

Abstract

Abstract Hepatic pseudolymphoma is a very rare benign reactive lymphoid hyperplasia associated with autoimmunity and chronic inflammatory liver diseases such as primary biliary cirrhosis and may mimic hepatocellular carcinoma. This diagnosis should be suspected in female with a suspicious single tumor. Close monitoring is needed in view of its premalignant nature.
