Abstract:
Hepatocellular carcinoma is the sixth most common cancer in the Western world. The most frequent sites of metastasis are lungs, lymph nodes, and bones. Risk factors for extrahepatic metastasis are advanced intrahepatic lesions, vascular invasion, elevated tumor markers, and viral hepatitis. Isolated metachronous adrenal metastasis occurring after liver transplantation is exceedingly rare.
