Abstract

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) was found in a patient with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN 1). The intriguing finding was that the HCC in the patient was positively stained for chromogranin A (CgA), a cellular marker for endocrine and neuroendocrine tumors. The patient had a pancreas endocrine tumor and type C hepatitis, that made pathological diagnosis of the origin of the tumor complicated.
