Extrahepatic Bile Duct Hepatocellular Carcinoma without Primary Hepatic Parenchymal Lesions
Obstructive jaundice is rarely a presenting symptom of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Most of the cases in the literature describing obstructive jaundice by HCC have a major hepatic component. Extrahepatic HCCs without primary hepatic parenchymal lesions are extremely rare. We encountered a case of extrahepatic HCC without primary hepatic parenchymal lesions in a 36-year-old man who presented ...
متن کاملDiffuse Hepatic Hemangiomatosis without Extrahepatic Involvement in an Adult Patient
We report an extremely rare case of a diffuse hepatic hemangiomatosis without extrahepatic involvement in an adult. The imaging findings of this tumor were similar to those of a hepatic hemangioma and included contrast enhancement with a centripetal filling pattern of the entire hepatic tumor on the delayed phase of a dynamic CT and inhomogeneous diffuse uptake of the entire tumor on blood-pool...
متن کاملPrimary hepatic neuroendocrine carcinoma
A 67-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital under suspicion of a hepatic tumor, which had been previously diagnosed to be an adenocarcinoma by fine needle aspiration. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a large tumor measuring 9 cm in diameter in Couinaud's hepatic segments 4, 5, and 8. We diagnosed the patient to have primary liver cancer, and suspected intrahepati...
متن کاملMetastatic neuroendocrine hepatic tumors: resection improves survival.
BACKGROUND The optimal treatment for hepatic metastases from neuroendocrine tumors remains controversial because of the often indolent nature of these tumors. We sought to determine the effect of 3 major treatment modalities including medical therapy, hepatic artery embolization, and surgical resection, ablation, or both in patients with liver-only neuroendocrine metastases, with the hypothesis...
متن کاملHepatic surgery for metastatic gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors.
Gastrointestinal neuroendocrine cancers are of significant interest to clinicians and basic scientists. Although accuracy of diagnosis has improved with advances in radioimmune and hormonal assays and in the diagnosis of earlier disease by computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), many patients still present with hepatic metastases. In contrast to most metastatic gastrointe...
