Case report: simple liver cyst masquerading as a gastric leiomyoma--a diagnostic pitfall

Clin Radiol. 1993 Oct;48(4):288-9. doi: 10.1016/s0009-9260(05)81023-2.

Abstract

A 47-year-old woman presented with abdominal pain. A barium meal and CT scan suggested a gastric leiomyoma. Follow-up CT showed that a cyst of the left lobe of the liver was responsible for the appearances. The differential diagnosis is discussed.
