title: Recurrent hepatoma with CT, MRI, and angiographic correlation.
abstract: Two patients who underwent successful resections for uninodular hepatomas in non-cirrhotic livers were readmitted with late recurrences. Both had multiple imaging procedures prior to treatment including computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and angiography. I recommend periodic ultrasonography and alphafetoprotein assay in the follow-up of patients who have had a hepatoma resected and I indicate when additional imaging methods are required.
