RESUMEN
A 68-year-old man with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) visited his previous hospital due to abdominal pain and was diagnosed with ruptured HCC. Before visiting our hospital, he underwent HCC treatment at his previous hospital, but his tumors did not improve. Although he started treatment with sorafenib, the tumors rapidly grew. Subsequently, regorafenib was given, and the tumors shrank. After 22 months being treated with regorafenib, HCC reoccurred, with a new lung metastasis and a contrast-enhanced nodule on the peritoneal dissemination appearing. He underwent conversion surgery and survived for 4.5 years after his HCC was diagnosed.
