Abstract

This report describes a case of mesenchymal cystic hamartoma of the liver with diagnostic imaging work-up using only ultrasound and MRI. We demonstrate an approach starting from the pediatrician's physical exam culminating in surgical resection and pathologic confirmation with an emphasis on MR imaging.
