Hepatoma associated with anabolic steroid therapy.

Holder LE, Gnarra DJ, Lampkin BC, Nishiyama H, Perkins P.

A patient with Fanconi's anemia who developed a hepatoma after 50 months of
therapy with anabolic steroids is reported. The lesion presented as a cold focal
defect on a Tc99m sulfur colloid scintigram, but was avascular on dynamic
scintigraphy. Both the unusual avascularity of the hepatoma, and its association
with anabolic steriod therapy are discussed.
