HCA looking like FNH. Same as patient 7A. (a) Fresh specimen: large subcapsular reddish tumor, with a white stellate area of loose fibrosis in the center. (b) CK7 is expressed at the border of fibrotic bands delineating nodules. (c) H&E (αSMA insert). The overall aspect is in favor of an IHCA. (d) Ductular reaction around inflammatory pseudo-portal tracts. (e) CRP is diffusely expressed in the nodule. The diagnosis of IHCA was reinforced by the disappearance of the chronic anemia after resection of the nodule.
