    Abstract:
    One case of hepatic adenoma is reported. The tumour occurred after seven years of uninterrupted use of anticonceptive pills and caused fatal abdominal haemorrhage. The adenoma had a connective tissue capsule and regular lobular structure in which at some area peliosis could be observed. In the liver, in several area focal deposites of PAS-positive material occurred. The case of a 29-year old woman with hepatic adenoma is reported. The patient has used oral contraceptive agents for 7 years without interruption. The hepatic adenoma caused a fatal abdominal hemorrhage. Connective tissue was surrounding the liver; some peliosis-like bleeding and focal deposits of PAS-positive tissue were found.
