Osseous metastases to the hand are very rare. Only a single case of osseous metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma to the hand has been reported in the literature to date. We report a case of osteolytic metastasis of the right first metacarpal as first manifestation of unresectable, alpha-fetoprotein-negative hepatocellular carcinoma (pT3, Nx, M1, UICC stage IVB, Okuda's stage I). The therapy consisted of R0-resection and hormonal therapy with tamoxifen 2 x 10 mg/d orally. Generally patients with metastatic cancer to the bones of the hand have a very poor prognosis.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) associated with major vasculature tumor extension is considered an advanced stage of disease to which palliative radiotherapy or chemotherapy is proposed. Surgical resection associated with chemotherapy or chemoembolization could be an opportunity to improve overall survival and recurrence-free survival in selected cases in a high-volume hepatobiliary center. Moreover, it has been 25 years since Couinaud described the entity of a posterior liver located behind an axial plane crossing the portal bifurcation.

Objectives: Liver transplant (LT) is an effective treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in appropriately selected patients. Locoregional therapy (LRT) is often performed to extend a patient's eligibility for LT. Imaging has a modest sensitivity of approximately 40-77% for detecting pathologically viable HCC in post-LRT patients.

To investigate the efficacy and safety of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with sintilimab and bevacizumab biosimilar in the treatment of unresectable hepatocellular careinoma (uHCC). The clinical data of 64 patients with unresectable HCC, who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University between January 2021 and December 2023, were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into a combination group (=43, receiving TACE combined with sintilimab and bevacizumab biosimilar) and control group (=21, receiving only sintilimab and bevacizumab biosimilar).
