A member asked:

Does focal nodular hyperplasia happen in a 6 month period?prev mri shows nothing on the liver, recent mri shows 3 lesions on the liver.past kidney ca

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Actually it can: Fnh is actually a curious event that begins with something we don't understand in the central blood vessel of the lesion, no matter how big or small. I'd not be surprised. If the radiologist is confident, then i'd urge you to go about your life and not worry about kidney cancer having recurred here.
