Abstract

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) has become more recognized in the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Fat containing HCC often presents as hyper-echoic in gray scale ultrasound and confuses the diagnosis. 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.

Key words： Hepatocellular carcinoma; Sonazoid; Contrast agent; Fat-containing
