LOPEZ VAZQUEZ, Nélson M; GONZALEZ PEREZ, Surama y LOPEZ VAZQUEZ, Hilda. Two interesting cases of Hepatocellular Carcinoma. Rev Ciencias Médicas [online]. 2008, vol.12, n.1, pp.186-194. ISSN 1561-3194.
Two patients suffering from hepatocellular carcinoma are presented. They were admitted at Internal Medicine Service at Maputo Central Hospital. Mozambique. They had a different evolutive behaviour in relation to what was observed in Cuba. At physical examination it was found large hepatomegalia, anaemia, high erithrosedimentation rate, hepatic markers, alkaline phosphates and non-positive HBS Ag. Diagnosis was confirmed by the echocardiography, tomography and hepatic aspiration biopsy. In spite of the progressive disease, patients presented some tolerance to clinical manifestations due to neoplasm.
