Figure 5

Liver wedge resection. (a) This is a wedge resection specimen demonstrating multiple vaguely defined nodules which are hypercellular. These nodules are diffusely presented and are centered around portal triads. There is no steatosis, cholestasis, or lobular inflammation. (b) The trichrome stain accentuates the nodular pattern and reveals no significant fibrosis. These morphologic features are diagnostic of nodular regenerative hyperplasia.
