The hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most frequent tumor in the world, and the third cause of death related to cancer. Histological samples obtained from diseased liver likely to have HCC are currently prescribed in selected patients in whose imaging studies and tumor markers are not sufficient for the diagnosis. In recent years, a risk of tumoral seeding along needle tract of FNAC to obtain histological samples has been reported. We present a case of tumor implantation of HCC cells in the needle tract, a year and four months after a percutaneous fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC).
肝细胞癌（HCC）是全球第五大常见肿瘤，也是癌症相关死亡的第三大原因。目前，对于影像学检查和肿瘤标志物不足以确诊的部分患者，会采用从可能患有HCC的病变肝脏获取组织学样本的方法。近年来，有报道称通过细针穿刺抽吸活检（FNAC）获取组织学样本时存在肿瘤沿针道种植的风险。我们报告一例在经皮细针穿刺抽吸细胞学检查（FNAC）一年零四个月后，HCC细胞在针道内种植的病例。
