Hepatoblastoma (HB) is a common primary pediatric liver tumor, and its typical presentation is a palpable, nontender abdominal mass that is detected through sonographic imaging. The current treatment standard for HB includes chemotherapy followed by liver resection or transplantation. Throughout the management of HB, high-quality sonographic images inform diagnosis, treatment interventions, and detection of surgical treatment complications. It is important that sonographers be familiar with the presentation and complications of HB on imaging examinations. The authors review sonographic detection, evaluation of HB at presentation, and common complications after liver resection and transplantation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
