Focal nodular hyperplasia: our experience of 53 Japanese cases

ConclusionsOur data indicate that FNH occurs slightly more frequently in men than in women in Japan. It occurs also at any age in both sexes, but the mean lesion size was smaller in our series than in the previous reports. Metabolic disease was seen only in male FNH patients. A direct communication between the FNH lesion and the hepatic vein is diagnostically worth noting.
