Liver tumors and oral contraceptives
Abstract
A possible causal relationship between oral contraceptives and liver cell adenomas has been postulated in the recent literature. In this presentation three additional cases are reported to support the existence of such an association. The possible etiologic causes for this newly described condition and specific diagnostic procedures for its accurate diagnosis are presented.
