  • Title: Combined ovarian serous papillary and hepatoid carcinoma.
    Author: Scurry JP, Brown RW, Jobling T.
    Journal: Gynecol Oncol; 1996 Oct; 63(1):138-42. PubMed ID: 8898184.
    Abstract:
    Hepatoid carcinoma is a rare type of malignant tumor resembling hepatocellular carcinoma that arises in extrahepatic sites. A case of a combined hepatoid and serous papillary carcinoma of the ovary in a 72-year-old woman is reported. The hepatoid component showed alpha-fetoprotein production. Imperceptible merging of the hepatoid and serous papillary components was seen, supporting the theory of a surface epithelial origin of ovarian hepatoid carcinoma.
