Core Tip	Hepatoid adenocarcinoma of the stomach (HAS) is a rare form of gastric cancer with clinicopathological presentation mimicking hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The high similarity between the two diseases makes the differential diagnosis challenging, especially when the primary tumor is unknown, and the liver nodules are the only initial finding. In the present study, identical dynamic enhancing pattern (arterial hyperattenuation and late phase washout) between liver metastasis from HAS and HCC was confirmed. Moreover, the presence of isolated portal vein tumor thrombosis and a tendency of tumor necrosis are the imaging clues that suggest the diagnosis of HAS rather than HCC.
