ABSTRACT

A 33-year-old woman was treated for severe aplastic anemia with norethandrolone over a period of four years, with a cumulative dose of 25 g. In the fifth year of therapy two intrahepatic tumors were detected and were classified as hepatocellular carcinoma and as focal nodular hyperplasia, respectively.
