Abstract
A case of successfully resected minute hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosed by peritoneoscopy was reported.
The patient was a 45-year-old male and an alcoholic. Serum hepatitis B surface antigen was negative and α-fetoprotein was less than 50ng/ml. Peritoneoscopically, a small encapsulated yellowish white tumor was seen at the margin of the right hepatic surface. On operation, the tumor was bound by a distinct fibrous capsule, measuring 2.5×2.5×2.5cm. Histologically, hepatitic liver cirrhosis.
Peritoneoscopy is very useful for the diagnosis of a solitary hepatoma on the hepatic surface.
