Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) has become more recognized in the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Here we showed a case of fat containing HCC which was diagnosed by CEUS with Sonazoid, and its histopathologic features, immunohistochemical profile, surgical treatment, patient’s follow up information were also presented.
