| Core Tip |
Ectopic liver tissue is often found on the gallbladder wall. The current case is the first ever reported case of ectopic hepatocellular carcinoma (EHCC) on the dorsal side of the pancreatic head. It is usually difficult to confirm the diagnosis of EHCC preoperatively because of the location of the mass and the rarity of this condition. In this case, we also could not make a definitive diagnosis preoperatively, but the macroscopic findings of the tumor, the immunohistological examination, and the decrease in tumor marker levels after surgery were very useful signs for the definitive diagnosis of EHCC. |
