“…Several articles have highlighted that early diagnosis and intervention in cases of HCC haemorrhage is key to reduce the mortality associated with it 9–12. Furthermore, several case reports described haemorrhage as the first presentation of HCCs,12–15 and the majority of these cases occur in patients who are already aware of their diagnosis 7. However, no literature is available on the effect of preventive patient education on HCC haemorrhage related mortality.…”

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a well-known malignant neoplasm of the liver associated with spontaneous haemorrhage in 3%–15% of cases. This complication is life threatening and has a mortality rate of 33%–100%. Despite the frequency and severity of spontaneous haemorrhage, the importance of patient education about this complication has not been highlighted before. There is currently no information available on the NHS UK website, and no publications have addressed the effect of patient education. We present this case report describing a patient who developed classical symptoms of haemorrhage the day before her elective HCC resection, but was unaware of its importance, and thus did not seek medical attention. She was subsequently found to have a large volume haemoperitoneum, anaemia and a ruptured HCC intraoperatively. This case illustrates the significant importance of counselled regarding the symptoms and risk of spontaneous rupture of HCC to prompt early presentation to medical services.

El carcinoma hepatocelular es la sexta neoplasia más frecuente en el mundo y la tercera causa de muerte en pacientes oncológicos. La mortalidad en los pacientes con esta condición se debe fundamentalmente a la caquexia tumoral, la insuficiencia hepática y la rotura espontánea del tumor. En este reporte se describe el caso clínico de un paciente de 69 años que acudió al servicio de urgencias hospitalarias aquejado de dolor abdominal de inicio súbito localizado en el epigastrio y vómitos con tendencia a la hipotensión, el cual tuvo que ser intervenido de

Hepatocellular carcinoma is the sixth most common neoplasm in the world and the third cause of death in cancer patients. Mortality in patients with this condition is mainly due to cancer cachexia, liver failure, and spontaneous tumor rupture. This report describes the clinical case of a 69-year-old patient who attended the hospital emergency department complaining of sudden onset abdominal pain located in the epigastrium and vomiting with a tendency to hypotension. The patient had to undergo emergency surgery due to the rupture of a previously unknown hepatocellular carcinoma. In addition to the clinical description of the case, the study is accompanied by a discussion on the possibilities of therapeutic management of this type of patient based on the international literature on the subject.
