Abstract

Primary hepatic malignant neoplasms are less common than metastatic liver neoplasms.Primary hepatic malignant neoplasms may develop from hepatocytes, bile duct epithelium, endothelial cells, lymphoid cells.Most of the primary malignant hepatic neoplasms are epithelial in origin with hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma. Mesenchymal tumors such as epithelioid hemangioendothelioma and angiosarcoma, primary lymphoma and other sarcomas are rare and represent about 1% of primary hepatic neoplasms. This chapter will review primary hepatic malignant neoplasms observed in adult patients with a special focus on radiologic-pathologic correlation.
