Abstract
A case of hepatobiliary cystadenoma with mesenchymal stroma is documen ted in which unequivocal immunostaining for progesterone receptors was observed in mesenchymal cells, These cells were negative for oestroge n receptor, This suggests that the proliferation of the stromal compon ent may be related to the presence of endogenous progesterone.
