Abstract
We present a patient with nodular regenerative hyperplasia of the liver (NRH) and portal vein absence studied with CT, MR imaging, and MR angiography. The most striking feature was exuberant hemorrhoids due to a giant hepatofugal inferior mesenteric vein. A relationship between unbalanced portal blood flow and nodular regenerative transformation of the liver is suggested in this patient.Entities:
