Popis: | An autopsy case of adult hepatoblastoma is presented. The patient was an 82-year-old male with chronic hepatitis of 7 years' duration. The liver tumor was detected 6 months before death. Autopsy revealed a large hepatic tumor occupying about 80% of the entire liver. Histologically, the tumor showed typical features of mixed epithelial- and mesenchymal-type hepatoblastoma. The epithelial component consisted of fetal and embryonal cell types. The mesenchymal component showed primitive spindle-shaped cells with various degrees of cellularity. Chondroid areas and a few foci of osteoid formation were also present. |
