Abstract

This case report describes an unusual site of tumour thrombus in a re-canalised para-umbilical vein, in a patient with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cirrhosis. The tumour thrombus was suspected on conventional radiography and confirmed using PET imaging, illustrating the complimentary value of structural and functional imaging in achieving the correct diagnosis.
