Abstract
Solitary liver adenomas are rare in children, especially in neonates, and c an be difficult to distinguish from other more common liver tumors of newbo rns and infants. An otherwise healthy male neonate with a prenatal diagnosi s of a liver mass underwent ultrasound and MRI followed by resection of the mass. The final histopathological diagnosis was hepatic adenoma, A discuss ion of the imaging evaluation, differential diagnosis, and literature revie w is presented.
