Abdominal Wall Masses: CT Findings and Clues to Differential Diagnosis

The abdominal wall does not comprise a distinct organ, and is often cursorily evaluated on CT. However, it is affected by many different pathological processes. These may be categorized according to their underlying etiology - trauma, infection or inflammation, iatrogenic and neoplastic process - or according to the abdominal wall layer they affect. We chose instead to group these lesions into six distinct categories based on their CT characteristic density: solid, infiltrative, hypervascular, fluid, fat, and bone density lesions.
