Core Tip |
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with tumour thrombus (TT) in the right atrium (RA) is an unusual but critical condition. There is no standard treatment strategy or consensus. Alpha-fetoprotein has been reported as a new alternative biomarker to RECIST in order to detect tyrosine kinase inhibitors response in HCC, and our case supports this hypothesis. We report this HCC case due to the exceptionality of a TT extending into the RA in a patient with stable cirrhosis. We think this case will warn professionals when facing similar cases, so a systemic treatment can be started on time and being able to check the treatment response with serial blood test for patients suffering an advanced HCC. |
