Abstract

Abstract We report a rare case of hepatic malakoplakia mimicking malignancy both in its clinical presentation and appearance on 4-phase computed tomography. This case highlights both an interesting variation by which this disease process can manifest and a multidisciplinary approach, which may be used to identify and treat future patients.
