ABSTRACT

The risk of spontaneous tumor rupture of a hepatocarcinoma with intraperitoneal hemorrhage is a potentially fatal condition, and the first medical management should be the hemodynamic stability of the patient; however, definitive treatment is reserved for oncologic management. We present the case of oncologic multidisciplinary complementary treatment after rupture of hepatocarcinoma, with a complementary approach in the institution, so that first TACE was started and later segmentectomy. Therefore, it is of interest to contribute our experience in the diagnostic and therapeutic management of patients with a history of ruptured hepatocarcinoma.
