Dissemination of hepatocellular carcinoma in subcutaeous tissue after fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC).

Histological samples obtained from diseased liver likely to have HCC are currently prescribed in selected patients in whose imaging studies and tumor markers are not sufficient for the diagnosis. In recent years, a risk of tumoral seeding along needle tract of FNAC to obtain histological samples has been reported. We present a case of tumor implantation of HCC cells in the needle tract, a year and four months after a percutaneous fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC)engjournal articlehttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24719916/24719916restricted accessCiencias Biomédicas32 Ciencias Médicas
