Abstract:
Niemann-Pick disease (NPD) is a metabolic disease in which cirrhosis is relatively common; however, there is no known association of NPD with hepatocellular carcinoma. We present a case of metastatic, multifocal hepatocellular carcinoma in a 4-year-old boy with NPD and onset of cirrhosis in infancy.
