[Obstructive jaundice caused by hepatocellular carcinoma].
The Authors take a hint from recent observation of two patients with
hepatocellular carcinoma presenting with obstructive jaundice to analyse the
litterature and their clinical cases. They conclude that in the evolution of
hepatocellular carcinoma can be found "early" or "late" jaundice. The latest is
hepatocellular and/or obstructive jaundice and it is harbinger of fatal prognosis
because of a big hepatocelluar carcinoma that has invaded biliary tree and/or
liver failure by concomitant cirrhosis. The "early" jaundice appears when the
tumor is still small and it is always obstructive due to intrabile duct tumor
growth. This kind of jaundice has a good prognostic meaning because, together
with imaging techniques, permits an early diagnosis of the hepatocellular
carcinoma necessary for satisfactory palliation or occasional cure
