| Core Tip |
A 68-year-old man with hepatitis C virus-related cirrhosis was admitted to our Unit for a diagnostic evaluation of three focal liver lesions detected by regular surveillance ultrasound. Computer tomography scans of abdomen allowed a diagnosis of single nodule hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and showed two centimetric liver nodules suspected for metastases and a luminal narrowing with thickening of the colon. The subsequent colonoscopy and ultrasound-guided biopsy of the three focal liver lesions confirmed a diagnosis of colorectal cancer with liver metastases together with a single nodule HCC. Our experience highlights the potential coexistence of two different neoplasms in a cirrhotic liver and the complexity in the proper diagnosis and management of the two tumours. |
