Nonfunctioning adrenal rest tumor of the liver: radiologic appearance.
We describe the radiologic features of an adrenal rest tumor of the liver. The adrenal rest tumor appeared on ultrasound as a round, well defined, heterogeneous, solid mass in the posterior aspect of the liver, on angiography as a homogeneous hypervascular mass, and on dynamic CT as a mass containing components of both fat density and soft tissue density and showing early fill-in and early fill-out. Adrenal rest tumors should be included in the lists of hypervascular or fat-containing masses in the liver.
