title: Hypertrophic Riedel's lobe of the liver.
abstract: Riedel's lobe, noted on 99mTc-sulfur colloid liver scintigraphy, was present in 86 (3.3%) of 2604 patients reviewed. Hypertrophied Riedel's lobe was found in 30 cases of which 25 (83%) were females and 5 (17%) were males. Liver scintigraphy will detect the presence of a hypertrophied Riedel's lobe and is recommended in all cases of right sided abdominal masses.
