dc.description	Inflammatory pseudotumours of the liver are extremely rare benign lesions. They were first described by Pack and Baker in 1953 1. They usually present with raised inflammatory markers and non-specific abdominal symptoms. Most of these lesions are picked up incidentally on ultrasound scans. Diagnosis of these lesions poses a dilemma and a challenge due to their radiological similarities to other liver lesions such as hepatocellular carcinoma HCC. In this article we describe our experience in its diagnosis and management.	en
