title: Cavernous hemangioma of the cervix in association with focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver. A case report.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Hemangioma of the cervix and focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver are both thought to be congenital vascular anomalies that could be associated with exogenous hormone use.
  
  
  METHODS
  A 34-year-old woman taking oral contraceptives developed hemangioma of the cervix and focal nodular hyperplasia of the liver.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Cervical hemangioma can occur with focal nodular hyperplasia, and both could be related to oral contraceptives.
