RESUMEN
Combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma (CHC) is a rare primary tumor of the liver. Histologically, it comprises components of both hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CC) but is associated with a worse prognosis. International guidelines regarding its management are scarce, with surgical management (major hepatectomy) being the treatment of choice. In this report, we present a challenging case of a 73-year-old male with primary CHC who was not a surgical candidate but underwent hepatic artery radioembolization instead.
RESUMEN
Plasmablastic lymphoma is a rare B-cell lymphoma that is mainly associated with immunocompromised patients, such as those affected with human-immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or those who have received solid organ transplants; however, it has also been documented in immunocompetent patients. Moreover, there is also a strong association with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Although mainly found in the oral cavity, a few cases were documented to affect the gastrointestinal tract, and of those, only three cases were found to involve the esophagus, and we present the fourth case in a 48-year-old HIV-positive male.
