Description

Yimei Deng, Yu Song, Shasha Shi, and Rui Cong report a vein tumour case first read as a liver tumour in a 2026 paper. The tumour grows in the body's largest vein and is rare and harsh. A woman near sixty came in with two years of upper belly pain and a large liver mass on scans.

Dye scans and a tissue test pointed to a muscle tumour of the liver, and chest scans showed lung spread. A fresh look at scan loops and a magnet scan showed the mass joined the vein. Strip-like bright zones on sound scans may mark this vein tumour, the team says.
