Résumé
Hormonal factors, like oral contraceptives, create a predisposition to hepatocellular adenoma. We present the case of a young woman with an inflammatory hepatocellular adenoma occurring in the context of a polycystic ovary syndrome. In view of this possible relationship, it would be recommended to follow up patients with hyperandrogenism with repeated liver tests and ultrasonographics. Furthermore, this observation illustrated some difficulties to differentiate remodelled inflammatory hepatocellular adenoma and focal nodular hyperplasia and underlined the interest of immunohistochemical markers for the right diagnosis.
