Overview
Hepatocellular adenoma medical therapy
- There is no specific medical therapy for the hepatocellular adenoma.[1][2]
- Historically, hepatocellular adenomas were treated with a wait and watch policy, with surgical intervention recommended for larger (>5cm) tumors.
- In asymptomatic female patients of hepatocellular adenomas , the first step is to stop the offending drug (OCPs) and check adenoma size on followup.
- The wait and watch policy is recommended when hepatocellular adenomas are <5cm or regress (to <5cm) following cessation of offending drug (OCPs) and no further growth detected.
- An yearly followup with MRI or ultrasound is scheduled for patients untill menopause.[3]
