The patient was 63-year-old male. Abdominal CT revealed a tumor at S2/S3, which led to a diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma, in April 1998. On April 15, 1998 transcathetereal arterial embolization was performed and on May 11, 1998 percutaneous ethanol injection therapy was given, but a viable lesion remained. On July 2, 1998, partial resection of S2/S3 was performed. There was an intrahepapic metastatic lesion at Glisson's site of the main tumor, which was suspected of implantation. In December 2000, the patient had a high AFP level, and a recurrent tumor was observed at S3 on abdominal CT. In June 2001, S3 subsegmentectomy was performed, because the recurrent tumor existed in the Glisson S3 area.
