title: Massive intrahepatic extramedullary hematopoiesis in myelofibrosis.
abstract: We describe the sonographic (US) and computed tomographic appearances of a large, solitary tumor in the liver produced by extramedullary hematopoiesis in an 82-year-old patient with agnogenic myeloid metaplasia. Confirmation of this diagnosis was made by US-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy.
