Spontaneous evolution of fortuitously discovered FNH in two children. (a) and (b): three-year-old girl with sickle-cell disease. CT scan after contrast injection at the portal phase at diagnosis (a). And three years later (b) shows growth of the tumor from 5 to 12 cm diameter. (c) and (d): eight-year-old girl. CT scan after contrast injection at diagnosis (c) and 12 years later (d) shows the spontaneous disappearance of the 5 cm diameter tumor with capsular retraction.
