FNH _ Focal Nodular hyperplasia

Q) Which of the following statements about focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) of the liver is true?

a) A central scar is present in all cases
b) Fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is usually diagnostic in doubtful cases
c) Resection is recommended due to risk of malignant transformation
d) Asymptomatic patients with typical radiologic features usually do not require treatment

d) Asymptomatic patients with typical radiologic features usually do not require treatment

  • Focal Nodular Hyperplasia (FNH) is a benign liver lesion, often found incidentally.

  • a) Central scar is present in all casesIncorrect. While a central stellate scar is characteristic of FNH, it is not present in all cases (seen in ~50-70% on imaging).

  • b) FNAC is usually diagnosticIncorrect. FNAC often provides inconclusive results in FNH. Histological diagnosis requires tissue architecture, which FNAC can't reliably provide.

  • c) Resection is recommended due to risk of malignant transformationIncorrect. FNH has no malignant potential and rarely causes complications. Surgery is not routinely recommended unless symptomatic or diagnosis is uncertain.

  • d) Asymptomatic patients with typical radiologic features usually do not require treatmentCorrect. FNH with typical imaging features (especially on MRI with hepatobiliary contrast agents) does not require biopsy or surgical intervention.

Amoebic Liver abscess

Q) Not true about amoebic liver abscess

a) Most common liver enzyme elevated is ALT
b) Metronidazole and luminal amebicide needed in all cases
c) In peritonitis due to amoebiasis perforation of colon are less than perforation of liver
d) 5% to 15% of patients with ALA may be resistant to metronidazole

 

Answer
The cecum is the most common site of amebic colitis, and the right lobe of the liver is more commonly affected because of drainage
of the right portal branch from the right side of the colon. The condition usually starts as diffuse amebic hepatitis; liver cells
undergo liquefactive necrosis

Contraindication of Left lobe liver transplant

Q) Absolute contraindication for left lobe LDLT is
A. Trifurcation of the portal vein
B. Bifurcation of portal vein in the right lobe of the liver
C. Aberrant right hepatic artery
D. Right Posterior duct draining into left hepatic duct

ANSWER d

Trifurcation of portal vein is not a contraindication of  left lobe liver transplant  as we will get a single portal vein on the left side

Portal vein trifurcation
Portal vein

Bifurcation of portal vein in right lobe does not matter because we are leaving the right lobe behind

Again right aberrant artery does not matter because that segment is left behind

Right post duct draining into left duct gives rise to two ducts on the left or a single duct which is quite high.

Right posterior duct to left

Selective Shunt

A. PSRS (Proximal spleno renal shunt)

C. SSPCS (Side to side portocaval shunt) 
D. Mesocaval
 shunt
