dc.description.abstract
This case report presents the diagnostic workup of liver malignancy incidentally detected in a 72-year-old male patient on routine body computed tomography angiography (CTA) performed for planning transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
The patient initially presented to an outside hospital with chest discomfort, where routine diagnostic procedures in the emergency room revealed grade III aortic valve stenosis.
Routine CTA for TAVI planning in our department then revealed tumor thrombosis of the portal vein suspicious for hepatic malignancy.
In contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) only the left hepatic lobe was inhomogeneously transformed with early arterial contrast enhancement. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed a primary hepatic malignancy involving the left liver. Transcutaneous biopsy with ultrasound guidance established the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
Incidental findings may be of prognostic relevance for the patient and in a number of cases, TAVI can be a prerequisite for the appropriate therapy.
