Intrahepatic splenosis mimicking hepatocellular carcinoma in a cirrhotic liver.

We report a patient who has a cirrhotic liver secondary to hepatitis C virus infection with a liver lesion incidentally found on routine liver ultrasound. The patient had a history of splenectomy 30 years earlier. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics suggested the diagnosis of intrahepatic splenosis, which is confirmed by core needle biopsy.
