Imaging of paediatric liver tumours with pathological correlation

Paediatric hepatic tumours are relatively rare with malignant lesions being twice as frequent as benign neoplasms and are mostly metastases. Imaging has a significant role in the evaluation of most paediatric liver tumours. Differentiating benign from malignant tumours is important as it significantly affects treatment decisions. We present the characteristic radiological and pathological features of the most common paediatric liver tumours.
