A case of hepatocellular carcinoma is presented. Work up at the time of resection revealed no evidence of metastasis. Two months later the patient developed an unresectable mass in his neck which invaded the second cervical vertebral body. This unusual metastasis is an indication that as one site of tumor is increasingly successfully cleared, we are likely to find more examples of tumor spread not seen previously.
本文报告一例肝细胞癌病例。切除时的检查未发现转移迹象。两个月后，患者颈部出现一个无法切除的肿块，侵犯了第二颈椎椎体。这种不寻常的转移表明，随着肿瘤的一个部位越来越成功地被清除，我们可能会发现更多以前未见的肿瘤扩散例子。
