Tuberculosis (TB) is a common opportunistic infection which may be reactivated in immunocompromised patients. The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is on the rise with healthcare resulting in increased longevity of people. Reactivation of TB has been reported with liver-directed therapies for HCC like transarterial chemoembolisation (TACE) and transarterial radio-embolisation (TARE). However, the co-occurrence of both TB and HCC in the same patient without any such history is rarely found. Only three isolated case reports have been published previously. We report the case of an elderly hepatitis C virus-related chronic liver disease patient who developed two different nodular liver lesions with multiple intra-abdominal lymphadenopathy, one such nodule being confirmed as HCC and another as TB along with nodal TB.

Radiofrequency ablation is one of the most commonly used therapies for potentially curative small hepatocellular carcinoma. Although radiofrequency is usually a safe procedure, severe and potentially fatal complications can happen. This is a case of a 72 years old woman with cirrhosis secondary to Metabolic Associated Fatty Liver Disease (MAFLD), who presented recurrent hydrothorax after treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and in which diaphragmatic perforation was subsequently diagnosed. We reviewed the differential diagnosis and management in a pleural effusion after a radiofrequency procedure. Although diaphragmatic perforation is an uncommon complication after RFA procedure, this case aims to help clinicians being aware of non-habitual complications.

Rastelli Operation

Abstract [Background] The prognosis of congenital heart disease in children has improved, but late complications in adulthood are becoming an important problem. One late complication after congenital heart surgery is congestive liver disease, leading to liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The Rastelli procedure is one of the surgical methods for transposition of the great arteries, and patients are thought have a low post-surgical risk of congestive hepatopathy by receiving re-intervention for right ventricular outflow tract obstruction.[Case presentation] We present the first case of HCC derived from Rastelli procedure-related congestive liver disease in a 41-year-old male. The patient underwent the Rastelli operation at 2 years of age and right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction at 10 and 35 years of age due to right ventricular outflow tract obstruction. At 41 years of age, a hepatic tumor was detected by computed tomography. Abdominal enhancing computed tomography revealed a partially hypervascular tumor in segment 2 in early phase and wash-out in late phase. The patient was diagnosed with HCC and underwent left lateral segmentectomy of the liver, splenectomy, and partial gastrectomy. The patient was discharged on the 28th postoperative day without postoperative complications. The resected tumor pathologically revealed moderately differentiated HCC and F3 liver fibrosis.[Conclusions] In the management of patients after the Rastelli operation, surveillance for congestive liver disease and HCC development is important, even if the patients have undergone right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction.

In this report, the case of a 24-year-old female with Beckwith–Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) who was diagnosed with well-differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is described. While BWS has been associated with childhood embryonal tumors, most commonly Wilms tumors and hepatoblastomas, this is the first case report to describe HCC in an adult with BWS. Although HCC typically occurs in elderly adults or those with underlying liver disease, in this case, we show that HCC can occur in a young adult with BWS without any underlying liver disease.
