1. Abernethy malformations are extremely rare. Two major types are described.
2. Our experience of four patients - 3 with hepatocellular carcinoma and 1 with a large focal nodular hyperplasia (which regressed spontaneously after shunt occlusion) - Clinical presentation, Imaging studies and Interventional Radiological / Surgical Management.
3. The embryology, pathophysiology, imaging findings (CT, MR and Angiography) and Interventional Radiological / Surgical management .
4. Recognition of the Abernethy malformation and complications on Imaging studies, Management options and algorithms.
