A focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) is a proliferation of normal non-neoplastic hepatocytes that is believed to be a local hyperplastic response to a vascular abnormality (1). It is the second most common benign hepatic tumor and most commonly incidentally found in woman in their 3rd and 4th decades of life (2). Female hormones have been suggested by clinical observations to play a role because of the female predominance and the young age at onset (1, 3), but it is not clear whether there is an association between FNH and oral contraceptive (OC) or pregnancy. The natural history of FNH is still unknown, because long term follow-up studies of histologically proven FNH with conflicting results have been performed only in small series of patients (4-6). Herein, we report a patient with FNH of the liver, which was diagnosed during pregnancy and spontaneously regressed during a 5-year observation period after delivery. CASE REPORT
