Core Tip Nested stromal-epithelial tumor (NSET) of the liver is a very rare type of cancer, few cases have been reported in the world. Most of the literature described a low tendency of relapse, the majority of the reported cases have been treated with surgery, obtaining a long survival outcome. Our patient developed a more aggressive disease, which relapsed soon after surgery, and progressed after first line chemotherapy. We aimed to update the literature about NEST; especially in patients with either metastatic or recurrent disease, for whom no standard treatment is now available.
