Hepatocellular adenomas (HCA) are rare benign tumors of the liver, occurring predominantly in females using oral contraceptives. Our case describes a 66-year-old woman presenting with a palpable mass in her upper abdomen. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed a large exophytic mass protruding from the caudal border of liver segments IV and V, without visible metastases. Laparoscopic resection of the tumor and gallbladder was performed. Histopathological examination showed a hepatocellular carcinoma with areas of HNF1a-HCA (H-HCA). This case shows that malignant transformation is possible in H-HCA. We present our preoperative decision-making process, as well as the role of imaging techniques in this rare case.
肝细胞腺瘤(HCA)是肝脏罕见的良性肿瘤,主要发生在使用口服避孕药的女性中。我们的病例描述了一名66岁女性,上腹部可触及肿块。对比增强计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像显示,一个巨大的外生性肿块从肝段IV和V的尾侧边缘突出,未见转移。对肿瘤和胆囊进行了腹腔镜切除。组织病理学检查显示为肝细胞癌伴HNF1a-HCA(H-HCA)区域。该病例表明H-HCA可能发生恶变。我们展示了术前决策过程以及影像技术在这个罕见病例中的作用。
