Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the diagnoses that we most frequently see in our clinical practice, accustomed to seeing it as a single lesion, many do not know the diffuse subtype whose involvement and extension are rare. In this article, we present a case of diffuse hepatocarcinoma with cardiac extension and we discuss the importance of recognizing it because its management and prognosis depend on it.
