Hepatocellular adenomas are rare diseases, defined as benign liver neoplasms composed of cells with hepatocellular differentiation. Differential diagnosis of hepatocellular adenoma from other lesions, including focal nodular hyperplasia and hepatocellular carcinoma, is crucial to determine treatment strategy. We describe a case of ß-catenin-activated inflammatory hepatocellular adenoma with malignant transformation. A 50-year-old man with a suspected liver tumor, based on abdominal ultrasonography findings, was referred to our hospital. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a liver tumor in S2 which was enhanced in the arterial phase to the delayed phase. Based on diagnostic imaging findings, hepatocellular adenoma or focal nodular hyperplasia was suspected. We considered the possibility of malignant potential because of the enlargement of the lesion. Thus, we performed a laparoscopic hepatectomy. Histological examination showed pigment deposition in the hepatocytes, which was determined to be lipofuscin. Mild nuclear swelling and atypia in the tumor area indicated nodular growth. Based on the histological and immunohistochemical findings, the diagnosis was ꞵ-catenin-activated inflammatory hepatocellular adenoma with atypical features. The imaging features of hepatocellular adenoma and focal nodular hyperplasia are similar, but if the tumor tends to grow, surgical treatment should be performed because of the possibility of malignant hepatocellular adenoma.
