Abstract
- Hepatocellular adenoma is a rare, but benign, tumor mostly found in women taking oral contraceptives. Hepatocellular adenoma must be treated when bleeding of the tumor, intraperitoneal hemorrhage, or malignant transformation occurs. A percutaneous liver biopsy is relatively safe and effective, but carries the risk of mild complications, such as pain, temporary hypotension, and bleeding, and severe complications, such as intraperitoneal bleeding, peritonitis, pneumothorax, hemothorax, other organ injury, and sepsis. We treated a 33-year-old woman with hemobilia and gallbladder hematoma following a sono-guided percutaneous liver biopsy. Complete quadrantectomy with anterior lobe resection was done after angiography and embolization of the hepatic artery.
