title: Supradiaphragmatic liver in the lung.
abstract: Heterotopic liver tissue has only been rarely described, and then usually in the immediate vicinity of and in communication with the liver or extrahepatic biliary tree. We studied a case of an isolated heterotopic nodule of liver in the lung of an infant in which no connection to the hepatobiliary system was present, and in whom the diaphragm was intact.
