Mixed hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma accounts for about 1% of all hepatocellular carcinoma. In many cases, mixed hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma has been misdiagnosed as hepatocellular carcinoma or cholangiocarcinoma because of the indistinctive clinical course and radiologic findings. The clinical course and the pathologic characters are not known well, but it resembles the characteristics of hepatocellularcarcinoma rather than cholangiocarcinoma. So mixed hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma was classified as a kind of hepatocellular carcinoma. But the growth and dissemination rate is faster than that of hepatocellular carcinoma and the prognosis more poor. So the exact diagnosis is important. Authors experienced a patient who has the mixed hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma diagnosed by liver and neck node biopsy in patient who complain-ed abdominal discomfort and palpable mass, so we report the case.
