Abstract

We describe a case of multiple infarcted regenerative nodules in a patient with advanced liver cirrhosis who had experienced an episode of septic shock. Sonography showed multiple hypoechoic or isoechoic nodules; contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed multiple, low-attenuating nodules with rim enhancement; and magnetic resonance imaging showed multiple nodules of low, iso-, or high signal intensity. Explanted liver showed coagulation necrosis of multiple regenerative nodules. Peribiliary cysts in chronic liver diseases, liver abscesses, spontaneous necrosis of hepatocellular carcinomas, and metastasis should be differentiated.

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
