    Abstract:
    Reported is the case of a 67-year-old man with an HCC who was being treated by percutaneous ethanol injection therapy (PEIT). After a year, CT and ultrasonography demonstrated the dilatation of the intrahepatic bile duct and the atrophy of the right lobe. Endoscopic cholangiography also showed stenosis of the right hepatic duct. This severe complication and injury to the hepatic duct and portal vein was determined as having occurred because of treatment by PEIT.
