All these pathological conditions may occur indiscriminately with or without concomitant cirrhosis. Occasionally, benign tumors resulting from simple hypertrophy may eventually assume a malignant character.In a dissertation submitted in 1910, Monier-Vinard1described a so-called new type of primary tumor of the liver, for which he proposed the specific and exclusive title of hepatoma. The latter he defined as a benign...References1. MONIER-VINARD R: Sur un nouveau type de tumeur primitive du foie: l'hépatome, 1910, Henri Jouve, Paris. Google Scholar2.
