    Abstract:
    Reported is an autopsied case of a double carcinomata associated with an adrenocortical adenoma in a 68-year-old Japanese female. The hepatocellular carcinoma was classified as being type II, according to Edmondson's classification, and showed massive necrosis caused by TAE and metastases to both lungs the diaphragm, the portal veins, the hepatic veins, and the inferior vena cava. The renal cell carcinoma was latent and diagnosed as being a mixed-cell type, with clear and granular cells also present. Double carcinomata of hepatocellular and a renal cell carcinoma are extremely rate and such a combination occupies merely 0.27-1.04% of the total double carcinomata reported in the Japanese literature. The adrenocortical adenoma in the present case was considered to be a non-functioning adenoma, based on no specific clinical symptoms during the woman's hospitalization.
