COMBINED HEPATOCHOLANGIOCARCINOMA: UNRESOLVED POINTS. Minireview.
Abstract
Combined hepatocellular carcinoma (cHCC-CCA) is an uncommon primary
liver lesion in which aspects of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and
cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) are intimately and unequivocally expressed. Its
origin is still a topic of debate, given its heterogenicity, molecular
profile, gene mutations but also to the complexities of the
microenvironment in which it develops and to the pathways that are
triggered in the liver in relation to the phenomena of liver damage.
Diagnosis and treatment are still a challenge.
