Is it true that all hypoechoic nodules w/ fatty hilum are benign, or is there a possibility of malignancy?

Yes, less suspicious of malignancy when fatty hilum is preserved but we also base of some other criteria such as size, shape, margin, etc. We can not rely on just preserved fatty hilum. Good luck.
