Unusual Images of Mass-Forming Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma
We experienced a case of mass-forming intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma which could not been diagnosed accurately without pathologic findings. A 78-year-old Japanese woman with no particular symptoms was admitted for changes in liver function tests. Ultrasonography revealed a solid liver tumor. When there are no typical imaging features, no pathognomonic clinical findings and no obvious risk fact...
متن کاملMRI features of combined hepatocellular- cholangiocarcinoma versus mass forming intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma
BACKGROUND Combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CC) is a rare primary liver tumor, which has overlapping imaging features with mass forming intra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Previous studies reported imaging features more closely resemble ICC and the aim of our study was to examine the differential MRI features of cHCC-CC and ICC with emphasi...
متن کاملPathobiological implications of MUC16/CA125 expression in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma-mass forming type.
OBJECTIVES MUC16 carries the peptide epitope CA125, which is well known as a marker of ovarian cancer. High serum levels of MUC16 (CA125) have been reported not only in patients with ovarian cancer but also in patients with liver diseases. We evaluated the expression of MUC16 in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma-mass forming type (ICC-MF) tissues. METHODS We examined the expression of MUC16 by ...
متن کاملPrognostic value of MUC4 for mass-forming intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma after hepatectomy.
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), a lethal malignancy afflicting many thousands of patients throughout the world, develops through a multi-step progression. We have established an oral thioacetamide-induced model of rat CCA recapitulating the histologic progression of human CCA, especially for mass-forming CCA (MF-CCA). Our previous DNA microarray study showed MUC4 is overexpressed in rat CCA. Herein, ...
متن کاملRecurrent Cardiac Tamponade: An Unusual Presentation of Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma.
A 48-year-old Egyptian woman presented with 8 months of sharp right upper chest pain and weight loss. She was discovered to have an enlarged cardiac silhouette on chest x-ray, and an echocardiogram revealed a large pericardial effusion with diastolic right atrial collapse. Pericardial window was done, and epithelial membrane antigen-positive neoplastic cells were identified in the pericardial f...
