title: [Multiple nodular densities on chest X-ray in liver cirrhosis--a diagnostic problem? (author's transl)].
abstract: A case report is given of a 49 year old white male patient, who had suffered for several years from liver cirrhosis and who finally died from hepatoma. Although a hepatoma was suspected in this case it was not demonstrated intra vitam, though at autopsy it was found to have invaded the lower vena cava, continuing into the right atrium. Problems of early diagnosis of hepatoma are discussed in context with this case.
