A rare histologic subtype of hepatocellular carcinoma, sarcomatoid hepatocellular carcinoma: report of a case.
Worldwide, primary liver cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer mortality. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of primary liver cancer. Sarcomatoid hepatocellular carcinoma (SHC) is a rare subtype of HCC with conventional HCC admixed with areas with sarcomatoid morphology. SHC is an aggressive, rapidly growing tumor with unfavorable prognosis. Pedunculated SHC is an uncommon presentation of SHC. Due to its rarity, much remains unknown about the etiopathogenesis, molecular underpinnings, and treatment of SHC. We present a case of an exophytic SHC arising in a background of cirrhosis in an older adult. A resection was performed, but the patient subsequently developed multiple additional intrahepatic metastatic lesions necessitating further treatment with chemotherapy.
期刊介绍：
Primary liver cancer is the sixth most common cancer in the world, and the third most common cause of death from malignant disease. Traditionally more common in developing countries, hepatocellular carcinoma is becoming increasingly prevalent in the Western world, primarily due to an increase in hepatitis C virus infection. Emerging risk factors, such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and obesity are also of concern for the future. In addition, metastatic tumors of the liver are more common than primary disease. Some studies report hepatic metastases in as many as 40 to 50% of adult patients with extrahepatic primary tumors. Hepatic Oncology publishes original research studies and reviews addressing preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to all types of cancer of the liver, in both the adult and pediatric populations. The journal also highlights significant advances in basic and translational research, and places them in context for future therapy. Hepatic Oncology provides a forum to report and debate all aspects of cancer of the liver and bile ducts. The journal publishes original research studies, full reviews and commentaries, with all articles subject to independent review by a minimum of three independent experts. Unsolicited article proposals are welcomed and authors are required to comply fully with the journal''s Disclosure & Conflict of Interest Policy as well as major publishing guidelines, including ICMJE and GPP3.
