Abstract
Small adrenocortical tumours in children are rarely associated with he patic pathology. We present two case reports of children with hepatic pathology associated with small adrenal tumours on computed tomography . One child had multiple granulomatous lesions due to toxocariasis and the other had focal nodular hyperplasia. Hepatic lesions seen in asso ciation with small adrenal tumours in childhood may represent coincide ntal rather than metastatic pathology.
