Abstract
Hepatocellular adenoma (HCA) is a benign liver tumor composed of hepatocytes.1 HCA represents a heterogeneous entity, and is subclassified into four groups according to genotype and phenotype: hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF) 1α-inactivated HCA, β-catenin-activated HCA, inflammatory HCA, and unclassified HCA.1 Theses subtypes vary greatly in their clinical and pathological features. Identifying the HCA subtype is important because it represents a way to understand the prognosis of HCA in terms of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) transformation. We present a case of β-catenin-activated HCA and discuss the histopathological findings with a review of the literature.
