A Case of Hepatocellular Carcinoma after Hepatic Artery Ligation

Majority of hepatocellular carcinoma is evolved from a well differentiated cancerous condition such as hyperplastic lesions eg. adenomatous hyperplasia in cirrhotic liver or de no vo carcinogenesis and prolifenation along with dedifferentiation. Adenomatous hyperplasia is may be seen in severe acute hepatic injury, like submassive hepatic necrosis, or in chronic liver diseases, particularly liver cirrhosis and it has recently attracted much interest from both clinicians and pathologists because it is regarded as a precursor lesion of hepatocellular carcinoma. Hepatic adenomatous hyperplasia resembling focal nodular hyperplasia might have developed from localized vascular changes associated with chronic liver disease, pre-existing arterial malformation and early stage of angiogenesis in hepatocarcinogenesis. We present a patient who developed hepatocellular carcinoma after hepatic artery ligation.
