Article Synopsis
- Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) rupture can lead to severe complications, including a rare condition called non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI), which has been underreported.
- A 77-year-old man with an HCC experienced abdominal pain and shock; after treatment to stop bleeding, his condition improved temporarily but worsened again, leading to further diagnostic imaging.
- The patient required surgery for affected intestines and was diagnosed with NOMI, marking the first documented case of this complication following HCC rupture, highlighting the need for awareness and prompt treatment of such cases.
