We investigated the effects of a high-cholesterol (HC) diet administered long term (25 or 55 weeks) on metabolic disorders including hepatic damage in mice. The mice were fed the HC diet (15 % milk fat, 1.5 % cholesterol and 0.1 % cholic acid, w/w) for 25 or 55 weeks. Body and adipose tissue weights
OBJECTIVE
Obesity and metabolic syndrome are increasingly recognized as risk factors for hepatocellular adenomas (HCA). There is still sparse evidence whether weight loss or bariatric surgery could induce HCA regression in these patients. In this brief report we describe the effect of weight loss on
We report the case of a 34-year old morbidly obese female, with a history of polycystic ovarian syndrome and birth control pill therapy, who underwent laparoscopic gastric banding. On laparoscopic exploration, a 4-cm liver neoplasm that was missed by preoperative ultrasound was incidentally found.
Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) and hepatocellular adenomas (HCAs) are benign tumors that occur in otherwise normal liver parenchyma. FNH is considered to be the result of a hyperplastic response to increased blood flow secondary to vascular malformations. Most FNH are polyclonal and to date, the
Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) and hepatocellular adenomas (HCAs) constitute benign hepatic neoplasms in adults. HCAs are monoclonal neoplasms characterised by an increased predilection to haemorrhage and also malignant transformation. On the other hand, FNH is a polyclonal tumour-like lesion that
What were previously called telangiectatic focal nodular hyperplasias are in fact true adenomas with telangiectatic features (TAs) without overt characterized genetic abnormalities. The aim of our study was to review a surgical series of TAs in order to describe clinical, biological, and
Liver test abnormalities are frequent in adult patients with Turner syndrome, corresponding to various pathophysiological mechanisms. Steatosis, steatofibrosis and steatohepatitis are the most frequently reported lesions, caused by metabolic disorders, which are commonly related to overweight.
Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) and hepatocellular adenoma (HCA) are benign hepatocellular tumors that develop most frequently in females and in non-cirrhotic livers. HCA are prone to bleed and to transform into hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Four major subgroups of HCA have been thus far
