Solitary hepatocellular adenoma in infancy.
Here is presented an exceptional case of liver cell adenoma in a five-year-old child. The neoplasm was diagnosed when the child was taken to hospital in a state of shock and coma because of the contemporary laceration of the neoplasm and of the spleen in consequence of a causal falling. The neoplasm is histologically defined, possible clinical pictures are described as well as the differential diagnosis and the tests useful for the diagnosis.
