Abstract

We present a case of a middle-aged patient with sustained intake of hormonal contraceptives (AH) which develops multiple hepatic adenomas (well documented association) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) unifocal giant without finding other risk factors for it (alcoholism, smoking, cirrhosis, hemochromatosis,...). While there is no unanimity regarding the association of consumption of AH with CHC in the literature, some authors already contemplated this possibility, also excluding other recognized etiologies of HCC, so you should assess whether your association is random or else there is a causal link.
