## Abstract

Hepatocellular adenomas are rare and benign primary neoplasms of phenotypically mature hepatocytes. Our understanding of this pathology has greatly improved due to advances in molecular and anatomic knowledge. This article provides an in-depth review of hepatic adenomas (HCA) while presenting the case of a 20-year-old patient with a giant inflammatory hepatocellular adenoma with an atypical presentation, in whom surgical intervention was performed via right hepatectomy. In the post-surgical course, the patient had an in-hospital stay of three days with no complications. During outpatient monitoring via laboratory tests and imaging at eight months, the patient did not present any trace of recurrence.
