Abstract (English): |
Primary hepatic sarcomatoid carcinoma is a very aggressive tumor, representing 0.4-0.7% of all primary hepatic neoplasms. The disease is associated with liver disease due to hepatotropic viruses and is more prevalent in Asians. Histology shows sarcomatous and carcinoma components. It does not have pathognomonic clinical or imaging characteristics and its diagnosis is based on the pathological and immunohistochemistry findings. Surgery could prolong survival in localized stages. We report the case of a 72-year-old Korean patient with a history of chronic liver disease due to B virus, who was diagnosed with primary hepatic sarcomatoid carcinoma with bone and lymph node metastases.

Abstract (Spanish): |
El carcinoma sarcomatoide primario hepático es un tumor agresivo que representa el 0.4-0.7% de todas las neoplasias primarias hepáticas. Se asocia a hepatopatía por virus hepatotropos, es más prevalente en la población asiática y en su histología se evidencian componentes de carcinoma y sarcoma. No posee características clínicas ni imagenológicas patognomónicas y su diagnóstico se realiza en base a los hallazgos de la anatomía patológica e inmunohistoquímica. La cirugía en estadio localizado representa la única modalidad terapéutica con impacto en la sobrevida. Reportamos el caso de una paciente de 72 años, coreana, con antecedentes de hepatopatía crónica por virus B, a quien se le diagnosticó un carcinoma sarcomatoide hepático primario con metástasis ósea y ganglionares.
