CASE 841: LIVER TUMOR or RENAL TUMOR RCC, Dr PHAN THANH HẢI, Dr PHAN HỮU BỘI HOÀN, MEDIC MEDICAL CENTER, HCMC, VIETNAM

 A 69 year-old hypertensive woman underwent flatulence without anorexia in 2 weeks. Her past history noted GI hemorrhagia 2 years before. BP: 122/88 mmHg, HR: 88b/min.

Ultrasound represented a #13x11cm solid tumor maybe a liver tumor.




Lab data noted positive HCC risk and HCV infected.


But MSCT detected a tumor which suspected a GIST  tumor or mesenteric tumor.

A surgical investigation for biopsy was performed. And the results of biopsy and immunohistochemical staining  were chromophobe RCC.


We learn that try to having all proves may get an appropriate diagnosis.
