Abstract
Two cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), one AIDS related, with hepati c involvement manifesting as infiltrating mass-like periportal intrahe patic low attenuation on CT are described. One case demonstrated mass effect with compression of adjacent bile ducts causing jaundice. NHL s hould be included in the differential diagnosis of mass-like periporta l intrahepatic low attenuation lesions.
