Abstract:
:A young man presented to us with an asymptomatic ovoid mass which appeared to be in the right major fissure. The roentgenographic appearance of the lesion was that of a pseudotumor. The computerized tomography scan suggested tissue density leading to exploration. At surgery, we found the mass to be a portion of liver herniated through a diaphragmatic defect. Thus, we add type 2 hepatic herniation to congestive heart failure, empyema, hemothorax, postinflammatory "fibromas" and malignancies as a cause of interlobar pleural densities.
