A 74-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with multiple liver tumors detected by routine ultrasonography. Colonoscopy showed a type 2 tumor measuring approximately 25mm in diameter at the terminal ileum. The biopsy specimen showed neuroendocrine tumor(NET)G1. The patient was diagnosed with NET G1 of the ileum with multiple liver metastases. Thus, he underwent ileocecal resection with lymph node dissection and liver(S2)biopsy. A tumor was observed at the terminal ileum with serosal invasion, and the mesenteric lymph nodes were enlarged. Multiple liver metastatic tumors were observed in S2, S5, and S8. The patient was diagnosed with NET G1 of the ileum, T4N1M1, Stage Ⅳ. He is receiving octreotide therapy and has maintained stable disease for about 24 months.

Fibrosis represents a terminal pathological manifestation encountered in numerous chronic diseases. The process involves the persistent infiltration of inflammatory cells, the transdifferentiation of fibroblasts into myofibroblasts, and the excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) within damaged tissues, all of which are characteristic features of organ fibrosis. Extensive documentation exists on fibrosis occurrence in vital organs such as the liver, heart, lungs, kidneys, and skeletal muscles, elucidating its underlying pathological mechanisms.

Hepatology and Gastroenterology Department, National Liver Institute, Menoufia University, Menoufia, Egypt.
Background And Study Aims: Few studies have considered patients treated with trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) for non-viral-induced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), with some reporting that those patients may have larger tumors, emphasizing the need for determination of the factors affecting survival in such patients. This work aims to study the characteristics and survival of patients with non-viral related HCC treated with TACE.
Patients And Methods: This is a multicenter observational study.
