This study aimed to evaluate the proportion of hepatocellular adenoma (HCA) that shows iso- or hyperintensity in the hepatobiliary phase (HBP) of gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI, stratified by HCA subtype, and to assess its diagnostic performance for differentiating focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) from HCA. The pooled proportion of HBP iso- or hyperintensity was determined for each subtype and compared using metaregression. The results showed that HCA subtypes other than H-HCA exhibit varying proportions of HBP iso- or hyperintensity, ranging from 11% (U-HCA) to 59% (B-HCA). Clinical Impact: Radiologists should be aware of the low specificity of HBP iso- or hyperintensity for differentiating FNH from certain HCA subtypes.
BACKGROUND. Accumulating evidence indicates that hepatocellular adenoma (HCA) may have a higher frequency of hepatobiliary phase (HBP) iso- or hyperintensity than previously reported. OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the proportion of HCA that shows iso- or hyperintensity in the HBP of gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI, stratified by HCA subtype (HNF1a-inactivated [H-HCA], inflammatory [I-HCA], beta-catenin-activated [B-HCA], and unclassified [U-HCA] HCA), and to assess the diagnostic performance of HBP iso- or hyperintensity for differentiating focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) from HCA. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION. PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched through February 14, 2022, for articles reporting HBP signal intensity on gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI among pathologically proven HCAs, stratified by subtype. The pooled proportion of HBP iso- or hyperintensity was determined for each subtype and compared using metaregression. Diagnostic performance of HBP iso- or hyperintensity for differentiating FNH from all HCA subtypes combined and from B-HCA and U-HCA combined was assessed using bivariate modeling. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS. Twenty-eight studies (12 original investigations, 16 case reports or case series) were included, yielding 364 patients with 410 HCAs (112 H-HCAs, 203 I-HCAs, 33 B-HCAs, 62 U-HCAs). Pooled proportion of HBP iso- or hyperintensity was 14% (95% CI, 4-26%) among all HCAs, 0% (95% CI, 0-2%) among H-HCAs, 11% (95% CI, 0-29%) among U-HCAs, 14% (95% CI, 2-31%) among I-HCAs, and 59% (95% CI, 26-88%) among B-HCAs; metaregression showed significant difference among subtypes (p <.001). In four studies reporting diagnostic performance information, HBP iso- or hyperintensity had sensitivity of 99% (95% CI, 57-100%) and specificity of 89% (95% CI, 82-94%) for differentiating FNH from all HCA subtypes and sensitivity of 99% (95% CI, 53-100%) and specificity of 65% (95% CI, 44-80%) for differentiating FNH from B-HCA or U-HCA. CONCLUSION. HCA subtypes other than H-HCA show proportions of HBP iso- or hyperintensity ranging from 11% (U-HCA) to 59% (B-HCA). Low prevalence of B-HCA has contributed to prior reports of high diagnostic performance of HBP iso- or hyperintensity for differentiating FNH from HCA. CLINICAL IMPACT. Radiologists should recognize the low specificity of HBP iso- or hyperintensity on gadoxetic acid-enhanced MRI for differentiating FNH from certain HCA subtypes.
