Liver Pathology
Tumours and Tumour-like Conditions
IAP Slide Seminar Series
Liver Pathology - Tumours and Tumour-like Conditions is made up of 11 cases to be presented as a slide seminar at the 25th International Congress of the IAP, Brisbane, 2004.
Convenor: Andrew Clouston
Series editor: Robin A. Cooke
CASE 1: A 67-year-old male was diagnosed as having HCV-antibody-positive liver cirrhosis four years ago, and had been followed up. A nodular lesion about 1.5 cm in diameter was detected by ultrasonography and was resected following the biopsy diagnosis of well-differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma.

CASE 2: During follow-up study of chronic hepatitis C in a 72-year-old male, a tumour 5 x 4 cm in size was detected and was diagnosed as hepatocellular carcinoma.

CASE 3: A 75-year-old male Russian immigrant presented with hepatomegaly. He had a history of coronary artery disease, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and non insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
Stephen Geller
CASE 4: A 43-year-old female presented with ascites and an abdominal mass. Imaging studies demonstrated tumour in the lungs, liver and abdominal cavity. Liver biopsy was performed.
Stephen Geller
CASE 5: A 30-year-old female presented with a mild inflammatory anemia. CT scan and MRI demonstrated a well circumscribed lesion in the right lobe (segments VI / VII) measuring 10cm in diameter. The patient had one child and had a history of oral contraceptive pill use for 13 years.
Paulette Bioulac-Sage
CASE 6: A three-year-old previously healthy male had a history of intermittent fevers, pharyngitis, anorexia and lethargy for 3-4 weeks. Physical examination disclosed a mass in the right side of the abdomen. A solid tumor was found in the liver by imaging studies.

CASE 7: A 43-year old Caucasian female was found to have a 4 cm mass in the caudate lobe, compressing the inferior vena cava.
Lydia Petrovic
CASE 8: A 70-year-old female underwent orthotopic liver transplantation for complications of cryptogenic cirrhosis. At laparotomy, the main portal vein was completely occluded, with a thrombus extending into the superior mesenteric vein and splenic vein. The thrombus was successfully removed, and transplantation was performed using end-to-end portal vein anastomosis.
Lydia Petrovic
CASE 9: A 35-year-old female was referred to the hepatobiliary service for the treatment of a symptomatic liver mass. Ultrasonography of the RUQ showed a large, lobulated, partially solid mass, involving the right lobe of the liver. This was resected.
Lydia Petrovic
CASE 10: A 55-year-old female had a wedge biopsy of a subcapsular 4 mm diameter white nodule taken during the course of a right hemicolectomy for carcinoma of the colon.
Prithi S. Bhathal
CASE 11: A 60-year-old male presented with chronic hepatitis B in the cirrhotic stage. Four months before orthotopic liver transplantation, nodules, suspicious for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were diagnosed on CT in segment 4 and segment 6.
