Objetivos: descrever um caso de carcinoma hepatocelular variante fibrolamelar, uma patologia pouco comum e com tratamento de escolha ainda controverso. Descrição do caso: aqui relatamos o caso de um paciente masculino de 45 anos, com diagnóstico de carcinoma hepatocelular variante fibrolamelar que foi submetido à hepatectomia parcial com ressecção tumoral, e encontra-se momentaneamente livre de doença após o seguimento de um ano. Conclusão: a variante fibrolamelar do carcinoma hepatocelular acomete geralmente em pacientes jovens, com fígado não-cirrótico, apresentando crescimento tumoral indolente e com melhores taxas de cura em comparação à forma clássica do carcinoma hepatocelular.


Aim: to describe a case of hepatocellular carcinoma fibrolamellar variant, an unusual pathology and treatment of choice remains controversial. Case description: here we report the case of a male patient of 45 years diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma variant fibrolamellar who underwent hepatectomy with tumor resection and is momentarily free of disease after one year follow up. Conclusion: fibrolamellar variant of hepatocellular carcinoma usually affects young patients with non-cirrhotic liver and has indolent tumor growth and better cure rates in comparison to the classic form of hepatocellular carcinoma.

ABSTRACT

El carcinoma hepatocelular fibrolamelar(CHF) es un tumor hepático maligno, poco frecuente, con características clínicas, histológicas e imagenológicas que lo diferencian del carcinoma hepatocelular. Se le consideraba de mejor pronóstico que el hepatocarcinoma, sin embargo, estudios recientes han demostrado altas tasas de recidivas y metástasis. Presentamos el caso clínico de un paciente con diagnóstico de CHF, el que evoluciona con desarrollo de metástasis cerebral, sin reportes similares en la literatura.


Fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma (FHC) is an infrequent liver tumor with clinical, histological and radiological features that makes it distinguishable from hepatocellular carcinoma. It has been considered to have a better prognosis compared to hepatocarcinoma, but recent studies have shown a worst outcome than initially assumed, with a high rate of relapse and metastasis. We present a case of FHC that developed brain metastases, which has not been previously described in the literature.
