Multiple infarcted regenerative nodules in liver cirrhosis after systemic hypotension due to septic shock: radiologic findings.

We describe a case of multiple infarcted regenerative nodules in a patient with advanced liver cirrhosis who had experienced an episode of septic shock. Sonography showed multiple hypoechoic or isoechoic nodules; contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed multiple, low-attenuating nodules with rim enhancement; and magnetic resonance imaging showed multiple nodules of low, iso-, or high signal intensity. Explanted liver showed coagulation necrosis of multiple regenerative nodules. Peribiliary cysts in chronic liver diseases, liver abscesses, spontaneous necrosis of hepatocellular carcinomas, and metastasis should be differentiated.
