Abstract
Hepatic schistosomiasis presenting as pseudotumoral mass is rare, and to our knowledge, no such presentation has been described in the English literature. We report two cases of atypical presentation of hepatic schistosomiasis as pseudotumoral mass and as hepatic abscess, and describe their radiologic findings.
