Unusual Presentation of Hepatocellular Carcinoma That Mimics Epigastric Hernia: A Case Report

Abdominal insizyon olmadan karaciğer sol lob medial segmentteki hepatoselüler karsinomun ağrılı karın duvarı kitlesi ile pigastrik herniyi taklit ettiği 72 yaşında kadın hasta sunulmuştur. Buna benzer bir olgunun yayınlanmamış olması bu epigastrik herniyi taklitden hepatik karsinom fıtıklaşmasını ilginç yapmaktadır. Ek olarak yayınlanmış diğer malign herniasyon olguları kısaca gözden geçirilmiştir.
