Abstract :
The evidence suggests that both delta hepatitis-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cyst hydatid disease (CHD) are frequently seen separately in people who live in the rural areas of Asia. However, there are still a few case reports about coexistence of these different diseases in the same liver. The current case illustrates a number of clinical problems that physicians face in the diagnosis of patients with basically different liver masses.
