Abstract

Combined hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma (cHC) is a well-known, uncommon disease. Sarcomatoid changes in this combined tumor are even less common with the clinical features remaining largely unknown. Herein, we report a patient with sarcomatoid cHC and spontaneous intra-tumor hemorrhage that necessitated emergency palliative tumor resection.
