Case Discussion
The patient had no history of malignancy and the study was otherwise negative. Given the location, shape, and attenuation of the nodule, a diagnosis of pseudolipoma of the Glisson capsule was made.
This pseudolipoma is thought to form when a colonic epiploic appendage becomes ectopically located in the hepatic capsule. It is a developmental curiosity and has no known deleterious effect.
