Figure 1 CT of the patient, showing the liver tumor infiltrating the suprahepatic inferior vena cava (A: Axial scan; B: Coronal scan), and showing the recurrent tumor (C: Axial scan; D: Coronal scan).
Figure 2 Macroscopic findings of the resected tumor.
A: The tumor was directly contiguous to the normal liver parenchyma; B: Tumor thrombus was identified in the left portal vein (arrow).
Figure 3 Histopathological findings of the resected liver tumor.
A, B: Hematoxylin-eosin staining; C: Immunohistochemical staining for vimentin. A: The tumor (right side) was close to the normal liver parenchymal tissue (left side) (× 4); B: The tumor consisted of uniformly round or polygonal epithelioid cells, which were arranged in strands, nests, cords or sheets and embedded in a heavily hyalinized matrix (× 40); C: Positive immunohistochemical staining for vimentin (× 40).
