AbstractFocal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) is the second most common intrahepatic benign mass lesion; however, extremely rarely, FNH grows in an exophytic manner. It is unclear whether pedunculated FNH can be managed in the same way as intrahepatic FNH. A 35-year-old female presented with right upper quadrant pain, and dynamic enhanced computed tomography revealed an exophytic hyperdense mass lesion originating from the liver, suggesting a pedunculated FNH. Shortly thereafter, she conceived. Since there was a history of acute abdomen, as well as the possibility of torsion of the mass or sudden massive bleeding during pregnancy, laparoscopic resection was performed at 17 weeks of gestation. Her postoperative and pregnancy course was uneventful, and she delivered a baby by cesarean section at 41 weeks of gestation. Our case suggests that pedunculated FNH, unlike typical intrahepatic FNH, may be better managed by laparoscopic surgery during pregnancy, resulting in favorable maternal and fetal outcomes.
