title: Sclerosing hepatic carcinoma: a report of a case treated with a transcatheter arterial embolization.
abstract: Sclerosing hepatic carcinoma (SHC) is one of the variant primary liver carcinomas and is characterized by intense fibrosis which surrounds slender cords of neoplastic cells. We report on a 53-year-old male patient with SHC describing the radiological findings and clinical course after a transcatheter arterial embolization. To our knowledge, this was only the second reported case of SHC in Japan.
