Boyunda kitle ile ortaya ç›kan hepatoselüler karsinom

Hepatoselüler kanserin baş-boyun bölgesine yayı- lımı çok nadirdir ve sıklığı tam olarak bilinmemek- tedir. Yetmiş iki yaşındaki erkek hasta boynun sol tarafında gelişen kitle nedeniyle kliniğimize baş- vurdu. Klinik muayenede servikal bölgede ağrısız, hareketsiz kitleler halinde çok sayıda lenfadenopa- ti saptandı. Bilgisayarlı tomografide servikal bölge- de düzensiz kitle görüldü, karaciğer lobüle yapıda ve büyüktü. Boyundaki kitleden yapılan eksizyonel biyopsi ve karaciğerden yapılan ince iğne aspiras- yon biyopsisi sonucunda hepatoselüler karsinom tanısı kondu

Primary manifestation of hepatocellular carcinoma as a cervical mass

Metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma to the head and neck region is unusual and its exact frequency is unknovvn. A 72-year-old male patient presented with a mass on the left side of the neck. Clinical examina- tion showed multiple, painless, immobile lym- phadenopathies in the cervical region. Computed tomography revealed both an irregular mass in the cervical region and hepatomegaly accompanied by a lobulated liver contour. The patient was diagnosed as having hepatocellular carcinoma following an exci- sional biopsy from the cervical mass and fine needle aspiration biopsy from the liver.
