  • Title: Hepatocellular carcinoma and focal hepatic glycogenosis after prolonged azathioprine therapy.
    Author: Cattan S, Wendum D, Chazouilleres O, Schmitz J, Gendre JP.
    Journal: Hum Pathol; 2000 Jul; 31(7):874-6. PubMed ID: 10923928.
    Abstract:
    A 22-year-old woman without predisposing liver disease developed focal hepatic glycogenosis and hepatocellular carcinoma after 6 years of azathioprine therapy for Crohn's disease. Hepatocellular carcinoma without cirrhosis has previously been described during immunosuppression, but this is the first report of disseminated focal hepatic glycogenosis after long-term azathioprine therapy.
