Neoplasms of the Liver

1987
Primary Liver Cancer is perhaps the most prevalent malignancy in the world, particularly in South East Asia and Africa. After the discovery of hepatitis B virus as a cause of chronic liver disease often terminating cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, and, more recently, the integration of viral DNA into host chromosomal DNA, the progress made in ...

Liver neoplasms and the oral contraceptives

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1977
For sixteen years (1954 to 1970) oral steroids had been used for contraception by millions of women. We were unable in this time span to find any cases of liver neoplasms in women using oral contraceptives. However, since 1970, there have been 138 cases reported in the English literature. We will add nine cases to this number, including an unusual case

Management of Mucinous Cystic Neoplasms of the Liver

Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2023
Mucinous cystic neoplasms of the liver (MCN-L) including biliary cystadenomas (BCA) and biliary cystadenocarcinomas (BCAC) are rare cystic lesions that comprise less than 5% of all liver cysts and affect only a small subset of individuals. We herein review the current evidence regarding the clinical presentation, imaging characteristics, tumor markers,

Liver Biopsy for the Diagnosis of Liver Neoplasms

2017
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary malignant neoplasm of the liver. Approximately 90% of these tumors arise in the background of cirrhosis secondary to an underlying liver disease, such as infection with hepatitis B or C virus, alcoholic liver disease, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, or autoimmune hepatitis.

Intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm of the liver

Pathology International, 2004
A very rare case of intraductal oncocytic papillary carcinoma of the liver is reported. A 63‐year‐old Japanese man was admitted to our clinic because of abdominal pain and jaundice. Imaging techniques revealed a unilocular cystic neoplasm of 14 cm diameter in the medial segment of the left hepatic lobe.

Neoplasms of the Liver and Biliary System

2016
The liver is the site of many epithelial and mesenchymal tumors, both benign and malignant. The commonest benign tumor, the cavernous hemangioma, does not arise from specialized cells of the liver such as hepatocytes or biliary epithelium, but rather from the ubiquitous endothelial cell. Most hemangiomas are incidental findings at autopsy or laparotomy.

‘Neuroendocrine’ differentiation in primary neoplasms of the liver

The Journal of Pathology, 1991
AbstractThirty primary liver neoplasms (16 hepatocellular, nine biliary, and five epithelioid haemangioendotheliomas) were studied for the expression of the general ‘neuroendocrine’ markers, neurone specific enolase (NSE) and protein gene product 9·5 (PGP 9·5).

Needle liver biopsy: For the diagnosis of neoplasm

American Journal of Digestive Diseases, 1955
1. Needle liver biopsy revealed the presence of hepatic neoplasm in 23 of 28 patients with neoplasm of the liver. 2. The biopsy confirmed the clinical impression of malignancy in 21 of 23 cases. In two cases the biopsy changed an incorrect to correct clinical diagnosis.

Primary neoplasms of the liver

1993
Primary hepatic tumours are rare in children. They present a wide spectrum of benign and malignant entities that take origin from the mesenchymal and epithelial structures of the organ (Table 1.1). Many of the diagnostic categories are strongly age related and, among the malignant tumours, prognosis is often strongly linked to tumour type.

Neoplasm-like Liver Lesions

2013
Neoplasm-like liver lesions are mass-forming lesions that may develop in normal as well as diseased liver. They generally are considered to carry a low risk for neoplastic progression. They may be solid or cystic, solitary or multifocal. Hepatocellular lesions include focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH), a localised hyperplastic mass probably secondary to ...
