Spontaneous ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma

Abstract: The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is rising worldwide. Spontaneous rupture of HCC occasionally occurs, and ruptured HCC with intraperitoneal hemorrhage is potentially life-threatening. The most common symptom of ruptured HCC is acute abdominal pain. The tumor size in ruptured HCC is significantly greater than that in non-ruptured HCC, and HCC protrudes beyond the original liver margin. In the acute phase, hemostasis is the primary concern and tumor treatment is secondary. Transcatheter arterial e… Show more

“…The incidence of HCC rupture in our study was 5.3%, lower than in a 1995 study in Taiwan (26%) 13. Other studies reported that ruptured HCC is associated with high in‐hospital mortality, above 25% 4, 5. In the current study, 23% of the patients with tumor ruptures died during their hospital stays.…”

“…Transarterial embolization is an effective method for achieving prompt hemostasis and has a success rate of 53–100% 4, 5, 15, 16. After initial stabilization, the liver functional reserve and tumor stage should be investigated to determine the best treatment.…”
