Abstract

Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) of the liver occurs with increased frequency in oncology patients after completion of tumor therapy. Its development may be related to the vascular damage induced by such therapy. We present three children who developed FNH after undergoing antineoplastic therapy for non-hepatic primary tumors. Recognition of this association in the appropriate patient population might obviate the need for biopsy.
