Hepatic angiosarcoma is a rare yet aggressive malignancy, which is prone to misdiagnosis due to the lack of specific molecular and radiological characteristics. The treatment regimens remain controversial and disappointing. Randomized clinical trials are limited due to the rarity of this specific aggressive malignancy. Independent case reports or series can provide relevant references for treatment. We reported the very first hepatic angiosarcoma received Atezolizumab and Bevacizumab as a first-line treatment prior to liver transplantation, which resulted in a partial pathological response under specific molecular mutations. This case illustrates the potential role of immune checkpoint inhibitor combined with anti-angiogenic therapy as an off-label treatment option warranting further investigation.
肝血管肉瘤是一种罕见但侵袭性强的恶性肿瘤,由于缺乏特异性分子和放射学特征,容易被误诊。其治疗方案仍存在争议且令人失望。由于这种特定侵袭性恶性肿瘤的罕见性,随机临床试验有限。独立的病例报告或系列病例可为治疗提供相关参考。我们报告了首例在肝移植前接受阿替利珠单抗和贝伐单抗作为一线治疗的肝血管肉瘤病例,该病例在特定分子突变情况下出现了部分病理缓解。本病例说明了免疫检查点抑制剂联合抗血管生成治疗作为一种超说明书治疗选择的潜在作用,值得进一步研究。
