Abstract
|
|
|
Primary liver cancer has traditionally been classified as either hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or cholangiocarcinoma (CCC). However, primary liver cancer occasionally consists of elements from both HCC and CCC. Intermediate hepatic carcinoma and primary liver cancer of the intermediate type are extremely rare subtypes of primary liver cancer that show features intermediate between HCC and CCC. First reported in 1998, the clinical, radiologic, and histopathologic characteristics of this entity remain unclear. In this case report, we describe the clinical, magnetic resonance imaging, histopathological, and immunohistochemical findings in a patient with intermediate hepatic carcinoma who was initially thought to have intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma.
