Omental lipoblastoma in a child: diagnosis based on CT density measurements.
A 2-year-old girl presented with an abdominal mass which on CT was central and hypodense. Housefield units measured -60 which made the diagnosis of a fatty mass. The diagnosis of an omental lipoblastoma was confirmed after surgery on histology.
