Overview
Hepatocellular adenoma is an uncommon benign liver tumour which is associated with the use of hormonal contraception with a high estrogen content.[1] ===Historical Perspective===Hepatocellular adenoma was first discovered by Edmondson in 1958 following 50,000 autopsies.[2]
Classification
Hepatocellular adenoma may be classified into four subtypes based on rate of occurence.[3]
Pathophysiology
On gross pathology, well circumscribed, nonlobulated,[4] smooth and soft, white to yellow to brown lesions, are characteristic findings of a solitary hepatocellular adenoma.[2]
Causes
The most common cause of hepatocellular adenoma is oral contraceptive use.[2]
Epidemiology and Demographics
The incidence of hepatic adenoma is approximately 3 per 100,000 individuals worldwide.[2]
Risk factors
The most potent risk factor in the development of hepatocellular adenoma is use of oral contraceptive pills.[5]
Screening
According to the United States Preventive Services Task Force, there is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for hepatocellular adenoma.[6]
Differentiating Hepatocellular adenoma from other Diseases
Hepatocellular adenoma must be differentiated from other diseases such as hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH), liver metastases (hypervascular), haemangioma of the liver, fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma.[3]
