Mixed Liver Cancer with Both Hepatocellular and Cholangiocellular Carcinoma Showing a High CEA Level ― A Case Report ―
Among malignant neoplasma of the liver, mixed type of cancer which is histologically composed of both hepatocellular and cholangiocellular carcinoma, is rare in frequency (1 ~ 3%). Serum CEA levels of these cases are within 10 ng/ml at the maximum. We encountered a case of mixed liver cancer with an extremely high CEA level (1500 ng/ml). The details of the case and a review of the literatures are presented.
