Fenofibrate-induced massive regression of mutiple inflammatory hepatocellular adenoma - 01/02/16
Summary |
Inflammatory hepatocellular adenomas (IHCA), which accounts for 40% to 50% of all hepatocellular adenomas are characterized by the activation of the IL6/JAK/STAT pathway. We herein report the case of a 52-year-old woman presenting with severe multiple typical IHCA that regressed dramatically on treatment with fenofibrate, a PPAR agonist known to prevent IL6-induced inflammation experimentally and in humans. Further similar observations are needed to ascertain the potential benefit of this therapeutic approach for large or unresectable IHCA.
