However, older men with a history of smoking are also pre-disposed to the disease. We report a case of a patient with multiple risk factors for HCC who was diagnosed with an incidental liver lesion. He then underwent a thorough workup to rule out any potential primary mass that could have metastasized. He eventually underwent resection of the suspected HCC. The final histology indicated a non-hepatic origin of the c... view moreĀ»
