[Hepatocellular carcinoma in pregnancy].

چکیده
Primary hepatocellular carcinoma is a very rare disease, especially in association with a pregnancy. We report on a 22-year-old primigravida, who underwent Caesarean section in the 29th week of pregnancy in conjunction with tumour-reductive surgery for hepatocellular carcinoma. The further course of the disease was characterised by an early recurrence and lung metastases. Under palliative chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil, the patient has been in a state of stable disease for several months. Typical risk factors for the hepatocellular carcinoma do not exist in the patient. Alternative explanations for the aetiology of the disease are discussed.
