Medical Must-See: Australian surgeon removes 2kg hepatocellular carcinoma
Despite the 15cm mass, the patient had no symptoms and only slightly abnormal liver test results.
An early-career Brisbane surgeon has removed a 2kg tumour from a 67-year-old who had no symptoms and only “slightly abnormal” liver function.
Dr Joel Lewin said that local GP Dr Kerry Hulett referred the patient to him after an ultrasound showed the 15cm mass.
