Abstract. False-negative findings on CT angiography (CTA) in two patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were demonstrated. CTA images of one patient with an aberrant left hepatic artery branching from the left gastric artery and another patient whose right hepatic artery was occluded owing to an unknown cause failed to demonstrate HCCs. This report suggests one of the diagnostic pitfalls of CTA for diagnosis of liver tumors.
