Hepatocellular carcinoma "HCC" is a leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. High-mobility group box 1 "HMGB1" is a nuclear DNA-binding protein which involved in DNA stability, programmed cell death, immune response and inflammatory responses in HCV and HCC. Its over expression was revealed in HCC and different types of human cancers.

Biopsies of liver mass lesions are encountered frequently in general surgical pathology practice. The clinical differential diagnosis is typically hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) versus metastatic adenocarcinoma. There are a variety of HCC variants that show a range of morphological appearances. The presence of malignant glands in the liver prompts the pathologist to consider adenocarcinoma, either metastatic or primary intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. It is important to remember that some variant patterns of HCC can show pseudoglandular growth. In this article, we present a case of fibrolamellar carcinoma that showed predominantly pseudoglandular growth to highlight the importance of a systematic approach and the routine use of a panel of immunohistochemical stains (HepPar1, CK7, and CD68).

Objective To investigate the potential use of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) as a marker for the surgical course following surgery for colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods Patients with advanced CRC undergoing open colorectal surgery who did not develop postsurgical complications were enrolled in the study. Blood samples were taken preoperatively and at 1 day, 1 week and 3 weeks after surgery for the measurement of the white blood cell count, serum C-reactive protein, serum amyloid A and HMGB1. Results Data from 21 patients were analysed. HMGB1 levels changed significantly during the surgical course, increasing from a preoperative median of 6.8 ng/ml to 12.1 ng/ml at 1 day postoperatively, and then decreasing to 8.1 ng/ml at 1 week postoperatively and 4.0 ng/ml at 3 weeks postoperatively. These changes were similar to but were not completely correlated with the changes seen in the other markers. Conclusion Serum HMGB1 may be a potential marker to monitor the surgical course in patients undergoing surgery for CRC, although further studies are warranted before it can be introduced into routine clinical practice.
