Hepatic adenomatosis--a rare double complication of multiple adenoma rupture and malignant transformation.
Hepatic adenomatosis (HA) is a rare disorder that is susceptible to hemorrhagic complications and, rarely, to malignant transformation. We report a 24-year-old woman who was found to have HA with > 10 tumors; she presented with simultaneous rupture of two of the adenomas, along with malignant change in one. Hematoma evacuation and caudate lobe resection were done and she has been doing well 6 months later.
