  • Title: [A further case of hepatocytic adenoma following oestrogenprogestogen treatment. Review of the literature (author's transl)].
    Author: Grandjean JP, Vignal J, Seffert P, Mestrallet G, Beurlet J, Quiviger P.
    Journal: Sem Hop; ; 56(7-8):383-92. PubMed ID: 6246638.
    Abstract:
    A young woman taking contraceptive hormone treatment for many years developed a hepatocytic adenoma discovered after a massive hemorrhage into the tumor. The patient recovered after a hepatectomy. A total of 160 such cases have been reported in the published literature, and recovery occurred after excision of the lesion in the majority of cases. Stopping the oestrogen-progestogen therapy seems to avoid recurrence but it is still not known whether this is sufficient to produce regression of a benign tumoral lesion.
