    Journal: Int Surg; 1985; 70(1):41-3. PubMed ID: 2991161.
    Abstract:
    A 31-year-old female presented with a sudden onset of acute abdominal pain in the right hypochondrium. Two days later, the patient was in shock and suffering from severe intra-abdominal bleeding. Investigations showed that the bleeding originated in the right lobe of the liver. The patient had been taking oral contraceptives for seven years. She underwent a laparotomy and right lobectomy of the liver which was performed successfully for bleeding cell adenoma. The patient made a full recovery.
