Аннотация

INTRODUCTION: Clear cell hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a rare subtype of HCC. Histologically, clear cell HCC is characterized by the cytoplasmic accumulation of glycogen with a clear cell appearance, constituting > 80% of tumor cells. Radiologically, clear cell HCC demonstrates early enhancement and washout similar to conventional HCC. Occasionally, enhancing capsule and intratumoral fat are accompanied by clear cell HCC.

CASE DESCRIPTION: A 57-year-old male presented to our hospital with right upper quadrant abdominal pain. Ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a large mass with a well-defined margin in the right hemiliver. The patient underwent a right hemihepatectomy, and the final histopathology revealed clear cell-type HCC.

CONCLUSION: Distinguishing clear cell types from other types of HCC solely based on radiological findings is challenging. If hepatic tumors exhibit encapsulated margins, enhancing rims, intratumoral fat, and arterial phase hyperenhancement/washout pattern despite their large size, consideration of clear cell subtypes in the differential diagnosis list will aid patient management, implying better prognosis than not-otherwise-specified HCC.
