Nodular regenerative hyperplasia of fetal liver: a report of two cases.
Nodular regenerative hyperplasia in the liver is characterized by diffuse nodularity of the organ secondary to regenerative hepatocellular activity. This alteration is rare in infants and children. We present two cases of nodular regenerative hyperplasia found in fetuses that exhibited several other malformations, sirenomelia and features of schisis association in one and Poland's sequence in the other.
