Abstract
Examination of the liver in 1500 consecutive autopsies performed in the coronial system in south-east London revealed a wide range of lesions. Around 5% of livers contained a solitary lesion, clinically non-evident lesions included cirrhosis, adenomas and metastatic carcinoma. Hamartomas are relatively common.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
