Hepatocellular carcinoma can develop in ectopic liver tissue, a rare anomaly where liver cells migrate during development. This case highlights a stomach-based tumor diagnosed as liver cancer within ectopic liver tissue.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Pathology
  • Developmental Biology

Background:

  • Ectopic liver (EL) is a rare congenital anomaly resulting from aberrant hepatic cell migration during embryogenesis.
  • Reported incidence ranges from 0.24% to 0.47%, with the gallbladder being the most common site.
  • Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been documented in 28 of approximately 100 reported EL cases, with the orthotopic liver remaining unaffected.
