A case of liver cell adenoma

Abstract

A case (76 year-old female) of liver cell adenoma in the left lobe was reported. She had not used oral contraceptives. ⁶⁷Ga-citrate liver scintigram revealed positive tracer localization in the tumor. The resection of the left lateral segment with the tumor and cholecystectomy was done without incident. The tumor measured 6.5×7×6cm and was similarly grossly encapsulated. The histological findings showed well-differentiated liver cell trabeculus, Kupffer cells, no bile duct, no glisson's sheath and no nodularity.
