Abstract

We report a rare case of primary carcinoma of the liver that presented withcavitary lesion in liver. 68 year-old womanwas hospitalized with diagnosis of liver abscess, but histological examinationwas compatible with squamous cell car-cinoma. Detailed radiological and clinical evaluation failed to reveal occult primary. Because patients clinical signs,symptoms and laboratory values supportsevere sepsis syndrome, systemic chemotherapy was deferred. Though thecase was treated with broad spectrum antibiotics and cavitary lesions were drained by intervention, the patient s con-dition deteriorated and we lost the case at the 20th day of admission.In conclusion, cavitation of tumor can be sign of highly aggressive biological behavior and poor prognosis,early di-agnosis, surgical resectionand starting effective chemotherapyin patients those who have good performance scoremaybe equally important as supportive care.

Özet

Karaciğerde kaviter lezyon ile prezente olan nadir bir karsinom vakası sunulmaktadır. 68 yaşında bayan hasta karaciğer apsesi ön tanısı ile yatırılmış fakat histolojik inceleme yassı hücreli karsinomu ile uyumlu bulunmuştur. Ayrıntılı radyolojik ve klinik değerlendirmede primer lezyon bulunamamıştır. Hastanın semptom ve belirtilerin, laboratuvardeğerlerinin sepsis sendromunu desteklemesi nedeniyle sistemik kemoterapi ertelenmiştir. Kaviter lezyonun girişimile boşaltılmasına ve geniş spektrumlu antibiyotik kullanılmasına rağmen hastanın genel performansı giderek kötüleşmiş ve yatışının yirminci günüde kaybedilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, kanser hastalarında kavitasyon ile prezentasyon kötü prognozla ve saldırgan biyolojik davranış ile ilişkili olabilir. Özellikle performansı iyi olan hastalarda erken tanı, cerrahi tedavi ve etkili kemoterapi ajanlarının başlanması en iyi destek tedavisi kadar etkili olabilir.
