Primer akciğer kanserini taklit eden hepatoselüler karsinoma metastazı: Olgu sunumu

Hepatoselüler karsinoma (HCC) etyolojisinin temelinde hepatit B ve C virüslerinin (HBV, HCV) neden olduğu sirotik proçes yatmaktadır. Karaciğer transplantasyonu, seçilmiş olgularda sirozun ya da tümör ve altta yatan sirozun eş zamanlı tedavisinde seçenektir. Transplantasyon sonrası en sık rölaps izlenen sahalar akciğerler ve karaciğer allogreftidir. Soliter pulmoner rezektabl metastazlarda komplet rezeksiyonla sağkalım arttırılabilir. Bu makalede; HCV sirozu ön tanısıyla karaciğer transplantasyonu uygulanan ve 32 ay sonrasında primer akciğer kanseri ön tanısıyla sağ torakotomi ve alt lobektomi gerçekleştirilen 59 yaşındaki kadın hasta sunulmaktadır.

Hepatocellular carcioma metastasis mimicking primary lung cancer: Case report

Hepatitis B and C related cirrhosis process underlies on the basis of etiology of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Liver transplantation is a choice of management in the treatment of cirrhosis or combined tumor and underlying cirrhosis, in selected patients. The most frequent relapsing sites after transplantation are lungs and liver allografts. Survival can be increased by complete resection in solitary pulmonary resectable metastasis. In this literature; 59 year old female patient, whom liver transplantation because of HCV cirrhosis prior diagnosis first and then right thoracotomy and lower lobectomy performed with prior diagnosis of primary lung cancer 32 months later, is presented.
