Overview
The most important risk factor for the development of hepatocellular adenoma is the use of oral contraceptive medications. Other risk factors include glycogen storage diseases, familial adenomatous polyposis, Klinefelter's syndrome, metabolic syndrome, obesity, long term use of anabolic androgenic steroids, vascular disorders such as portal vein agenesis, Budd-Chiari syndrome, and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia.
Hepatocellular Adenoma Risk Factors
- The most important risk factor for the development of hepatocellular adenoma is the use of oral contraceptive medications, such as:[1]
- Drospirenone and Ethinyl estradiol
- Norethindrone acetate and Ethinyl estradiol
- Norgestimate and Ethinyl estradiol
- Norgestrel and Ethinyl estradiol
- The risk is proportional to:[2]
- Hormonal dose
- Duration of medication
- Other risk factors include:[2][3][4][5]
Risk Factors for Malignant Transformation
Risk factors for the malignant transformation of hepatocellular adenoma to hepatocellular carcinoma include:[6]
- Gender (men)
- Size (> 8 cm)
- Sub-type (beta-catenin-activated hepatocellular adenoma)
