Title:Testosterone-receptor positive hepatocellular carcinoma in a 29-year old
bodybuilder with a history of anabolic androgenic steroid abuse: a case report
Version:2Date:1 March 2015
Reviewer: Xueying Sun
Reviewer's report:
Minor Essential Revisions
This is a case report of hepatocellular adenoma (HCA) with literature review.
HCA is an uncommon benign liver tumor. 90% of HCAs arise in women aged
20-40, and most of them have a history of using oral contraceptives. The authors
reported a case of 29-year old male bodybuilder with a history of anabolic
androgenic steroid abuse. It is interesting and the report was well written and
could be accepted for publication. There are only two minor comments: 1. In the
second paragraph of Introduction section (line 72-76), the authors should cite
several references to support these statements. 2. Line 124,125: two typos, 25.6
and 30.1 cm.
Level of interest: An article whose findings are important to those with closely
related research interests
Quality of written English: Needs some language corrections before being
published
Statistical review: No, the manuscript does not need to be seen by a statistician.
Declaration of competing interests:
