Abstract
Introduction: The history of benign liver cell tumors, namely, focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH), and hepatocellular adenoma (HCA), has recently progressed thanks to molecular biology and imaging studies that made it possible a new classification used in European, American and East countries.
Case Report: A review was performed of the numerous published articles, with focus on the management and clinical outcome of benign liver cell tumors is an attempt to promote more standardized guidelines.
Conclusion: The discovery of genetic drivers of HCA has refined our knowledge of the life history of HCA from risk factors of malignant transformation. The clinical management of FNH and HCA have changed in the recent years. This will have an impact on the management of these lesions including surveillance.

Keywords: Focal nodular hyperplasia, Benign liver cell tumors (BLCT), Liver lesions, Hepatocellular adenoma
