- A 43 year-old-women patient was admitted for one month of jaundice. She was diagnosed hepatitis B carrier
17 years ago and has not done a routine check. Abdominal CT showed a large ill defined mass in left hepatic lobe
with inhomogenous enhancement in arterial and delayed phase. The result of biopsy including the
immunohistochemical stains showed the combined hepatocellular and cholangiocarcinoma (stage IVa, type C by
Allen and Lisa). With the radiation therapy (3,910 cGy), six times of transarterial chemo-lipiodolization and two
times of percutaneous ethanol injection, huge mass was markedly decreased in size and no stain in hepatic
angiogram. She underwent left lobectomy.
