Unlabelled:
We present a rare pathological entity of the liver and review the literature.
Case Report:
a 33-year-old asymptomatic woman showed a space-occupying lesion on liver segment VI, which was detected incidentally on ultrasound examination performed for a gynecological disorder. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging of the liver confirmed a 3-cm lesion in segment VI. Segmentectomy of segment VI was performed. Pathological diagnosis was nodular lymphoid hyperplasia of the liver. Nodular lymphoid hyperplasia or pseudo-lymphoma is a highly uncommon disease that usually develops in cirrhotic liver. Our patient was free of liver disease.

Lymphoid Cells and Tissues
Lymphoid cells consist of various types of immune system cells. These include B and T lymphocytes, which are responsible for producing antibodies and killing infected cells, respectively. Dendritic cells act as messengers between the innate and adaptive...

Secondary Lymphoid Organs
The spleen is a vital organ in the lymphatic system, nestled in the upper left side of the abdomen. It is composed of two primary regions: the red pulp and the white pulp, each having distinct functions. The red pulp performs a significant role in blood filtration. It efficiently purges the blood of old or damaged red blood cells and...

Detailed Structure and Function of Lymph Nodes
From a histological perspective, lymph nodes can be split into two main areas: the superficial cortex and the deep medulla. The outer cortex is populated by dendritic cells, macrophages, and B lymphocytes, which are densely packed into follicles. When these B-lymphocytes are presented...
