Massive portal vein tumor thrombus from colorectal cancer without any metastatic nodules in the liver parenchyma: report of a case

Massive portal vein tumor thrombus from colorectal cancer without any metastatic nodules in the liver parenchyma: report of a case

Metastatic lesions in the liver derived from colorectal cancer rarely invade the portal vein macroscopically. Portal vein tumor thrombus is commonly associated with hepatocellular carcinoma. Colorectal liver metastases are usually accompanied by microscopic tumor invasion into the intrahepatic porta...
