Primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the liver is rare and has an extremely poor prognosis. It is very difficult to detect and is sometimes misdiagnosed. It has been reported that male sex, hepatic cyst, hepatolithiasis, hepatic teratoma, and liver cirrhosis may be associated with SCC of the liver. A 67-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with anorexia, weakness, and right upper quadrant abdominal (RUQ) pain. Sonography and an abdominal computed tomography scan revealed a 36 × 34 cm mass in the liver. Pathological analysis of the sample suggested SCC. According to the negative radiographic findings in other major organs, the tumor was considered primary. The patient was treated with surgical resection and followed by palliative care. Our case died 5 months after the initial presentation.
原发性肝鳞状细胞癌(SCC)较为罕见,预后极差。其很难被检测出来,有时还会被误诊。据报道,男性、肝囊肿、肝内胆管结石、肝畸胎瘤和肝硬化可能与肝SCC有关。一名67岁女性因厌食、乏力和右上腹疼痛入院。超声检查和腹部计算机断层扫描显示肝脏有一个36×34厘米的肿块。样本的病理分析提示为SCC。根据其他主要器官的影像学检查结果为阴性,该肿瘤被认为是原发性的。患者接受了手术切除,随后进行姑息治疗。我们的病例在初次就诊后5个月死亡。
