Abstract

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a leading cause of cancer morbidity and mortality worldwide. Common sites of metastases include the lungs, regional lymph nodes, bone, and adrenal glands. Although rare, distant metastases to the cervical lymph nodes have been reported. With better therapies for viral hepatitis, there has been a shift in the landscape of chronic liver disease and the development of HCC with rising prevalence of HCC attributable to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease. In this study, we describe a case of metastatic HCC presenting as cervical lymphadenopathy in a patient with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease in the absence of cirrhosis.

肝细胞癌（HCC）是全球癌症发病率和死亡率的主要原因。常见的转移部位包括肺、局部淋巴结、骨和肾上腺。虽然很少见，但远处转移到颈部淋巴结的病例也有报道。随着病毒性肝炎治疗的改善，慢性肝病和HCC的发展发生了变化，与代谢功能障碍相关的脂肪变性肝病引起的HCC患病率上升。在这项研究中，我们描述了一例转移性HCC，表现为宫颈淋巴结病变，患者伴有代谢功能障碍相关的脂肪变性肝病，无肝硬化。
