Solitary necrotic nodule of the liver (SNNL) is a rare benign lesion with a complete necrotic core and a clear fibrous capsule containing elastic fibers. We present the case of a patient with a radiographic computed tomography (CT) finding of "ring"-like annular calcification within the lesion and postoperative pathologic diagnosis of necrotic nodules wrapped by dense fibers in liver tissue, as well as the patient's subsequent management and outcome.
