Summary

Lymphoma can affect hepatic parenchima in the way of spread infiltration (infrequent) or with lymphomatous solid masses (more common). These masses may appear as roundish, whitish nodules with a cerebroide aspect. Their volume varies from few millimetres to some centimetres and can be single or multiple, surrounded by healthy hepatic parenchyma. Sonographically, their aspect is roundish or oval, well-defined but not capsulated and hypoechoic. Normally hepatomegaly and satellite lymphadenopathy are present.
