A 69-year-old man with intermediate-risk prostate cancer and a mildly elevated prostate-specific antigen of 8.2 μg/L was referred for 68Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen (68Ga-PSMA) PET/CT for primary staging. An incidental intensely 68Ga-PSMA-avid hepatic focus was seen on PSMA PET and subsequent FDG PET/CT and MRI cholangiogram. This was confirmed to be hepatocellular cholangiocarcinoma on subsequent histopathological examination.

Prognostic Impact of CCA Components in Combined Hepatocellular Carcinoma-Cholangiocarcinoma.
J Hepatocell Carcinoma
December 2024
Department of Radiology, The Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou, People's Republic of China.
Purpose: To investigate the differences of combined hepatocellular carcinoma-cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CCA) patients with a cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) component ≥ 30% or < 30% versus intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) patients in recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) prognoses.
Methods: Patients with cHCC-CCA and iCCA after surgery were recruited. All cHCC-CCA patients were divided into two subgroups (CCA components ≥ 30% and < 30%).
Incidence of hepatobiliary malignancies in primary sclerosing cholangitis: systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background And Aims: Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a known risk factor for hepatobiliary malignancies. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of published studies to determine the incidence and risk factors for hepatobiliary malignancies in people with PSC.
Methods: Pubmed and Embase databases were searched from inception to April 10, 2024 for cohort studies reporting data on the incidence of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), or gallbladder cancer (GBC) in PSC.

Liver cancer ranks as the sixth most prevalent form of cancer and stands as the fourth leading cause of cancer-related fatalities on a global scale. The two primary types of liver cancer are hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). While ICC originates from the bile ducts, HCC develops from hepatocytes, which are the primary functional cells of the liver.

The development of primary liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma [HCC] and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma [ICC]) is linked to its physical microenvironment, particularly extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness. Potential anticancer strategies targeting ECM stiffness include prevention/reversal of the stiffening process and disruption of the response of cancer cells to mechanical signals from ECM. However, each strategy has limitations.
