Abstract
Malignant hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (HEH) is a rare malignant tumor of vascular origin with unknown aetiology and a variable natural course. At the time of diagnosis, most patients present with multifocal tumours lesions that involve both liver lobes. From the therapeutic aspect, liver resection (LRx), liver transplantation (LTx), chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and/or immunotherapy have been used in the treatment of patients with HEH. However, because of the rarity of this tumor and its unpredictable natural history, it is impossible to assess the effectiveness of these respective therapies. In this report, our objective was to present clinical aspects, diagnostic options, therapeutic modalities, and the clinical outcome of single patient with LTx because of this rare tumor.
Abstract in Croatian
Maligni epiteloidni hemangioendoteliom jetre je rijetki maligni tumor porijeklom od stanica krvnih žila s nepoznatom etiologijom i varijabilnim prirodnim tijekom. U vrijeme postavljanja dijagnoze većina bolesnika prezentira se s multifokalnim tumorskim promjenama koje zahvaćaju oba režnja jetre. U terapiji provode se postupci resekcije dijela jetre, transplantacije jetre, kemoterapije, zračenja i/ili imunomodulatorne terapije. Obzirom na rijetkost navedenog tumora i nepredvidiv prirodni tijek bolesti nemoguće je generalno procijeniti efektivnost navedenih terapija. U ovom prikazu cilj je prikazati kliničke aspekte, dijagnostičke mogućnosti, terapijske modalitete i tijek bolesti kod bolesnice s transplantiranom jetrom uslijed navedenog rijetkog tumora.
