Abstract
A 40-year-old Omani female presented with history of bilateral loin pain with no urinary symptoms. On examination, she had epigastric tenderness, but an otherwise normal examination. Ultrasound of the urinary tract was unremarkable; however, a sizable mass was incidentally noted. Subsequently, a computed tomography (CT) scan was performed. Contrast-enhanced CT scan revealed a sizable heterogeneous complex mass with cystic and solid components that was centered upon the porta hepatis reaching the retroperitoneum. It was seen intimately related to major vessels; the celiac trunk with hepatic artery antero-medially and the portal vein anteriorly. The inferior vena cava (IVC) was seen attenuated posterolaterally.
