Abstrakt: Primary hepatic sarcoma is a rare malignant neoplasm from mesenchymal cells and it is unusual issue in national and international literature. The majority of the cases are asymptomatic or oligosymptomatic. In the imaging tests, there are no specific features for this type of tumor, the main tumor markers do not increase and there is no association with viral hepatitis. The diagnosis performed by histology and immunohistochemistry. Therefore, this article aims to report a clinical/ surgical case of primary hepatic sarcoma. For this, it was performed a retrospective descriptive study along with the general surgery team of a public hospital in Belo Horizonte in 2014. This is a patient with hepatic fusocellular sarcoma, affecting the left lobe of the liver. After multidisciplinary assessment, it was decided for a hepatectomy in three liver's segments. The patient was discharged with satisfactory clinical/ surgical outcome remained asymptomatic and no signs of disease recurrence after nine months of follow-up. In conclusion, the surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment of primary liver sarcoma and the main determinant of prognosis and tumor recurrence after initial workup. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
