  • Title: Hepatoma presenting as extrahepatic biliary obstruction due to hemobilia.
    Author: Rhoe BS, Kim H, Jin SY, Jang WI.
    Journal: Yonsei Med J; 1989 Dec; 30(4):383-6. PubMed ID: 2560594.
    Abstract:
    A case of hepatoma presenting as extrahepatic biliary obstruction due to hemobilia is reported. The patient, a 49-year-old woman, developed jaundice of the obstructive type after a history of B-viral hepatitis. On laparotomy, the liver revealed macronodular cirrhosis without any noticeable mass. A 4-cm sized friable tissue and blood clots were identified within the distended left hepatic duct. Pathologic examination of this tissue confirmed the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma extended in the hepatic duct.
