Overview
The gold standard method for the diagnosis of hepatocellular adenoma is excision biopsy of liver lesions either by open surgery or laparoscopically. Percutaneous biopsy is not recommended due to the risk of bleeding and tumor dissemination. Other tests that can be used to differentiate between benign and carcinomatous lesions include QBend10 and erbB2 immunostaining, comparative genomic in situ hybridization, and fluorescence in situ hybridization.
Other Diagnostic Studies
- The gold standard test for the diagnosis of hepatocellular adenoma is excision biopsy of liver lesions either by open surgery or laparoscopically.[1]
- The microscopic differentiation between benign hepatic adenomas and hepatocellular carcinomas can be difficult, even with tumor tissue.
- Other diagnostic tests that can be used to differentiate benign and carcinomatous lesions include QBend10 and erbB2 immunostaining, comparative genomic in situ hybridization, and fluorescence in situ hybridization.[2][3][4][5]
- The percutaneous biopsy of hepatic lesions is not recommended due to the risk of bleeding and tumor dissemination.[6]
