Solitary necrotic nodule of the liver: always benign?
SNNL is not always benign. The possible causes of this lesion include parasites and metastatic tumors. It is important to identify the minute foci of metastatic carcinoma for the appropriate management of this lesion.
These observations suggest that mast cells participate in the acute inflammatory reaction and the onset of ventricular remodeling associated with acute viral myocarditis and that the inhibition of their function may be therapeutic in this disease.
