Hepatocellular carcinoma presenting as bone pain
Abstract:
Hepatocellular carcinoma is an uncommon malignancy in the western world, and its presentation as symptomatic skeletal metastasis is rare. The following describes a patient whose initial complaint was arm pain that was subsequently found to be due to metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma. A review of the literature describing skeletal involvement by hepatocellular carcinoma is included.

Nutrient Artery
The nutrient artery is the main blood vessel that enters the diaphysis via the nutrient foramen. While most long bones have only one nutrient foramen, large bones, such as the femur, may have two. This...
Bone Disorders
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...
Chronic Pancreatitis I: Introduction
