As part of a preoperative work up for aortic valve replacement, he underwent a CT chest, which incidentally noted an 8.8 x 8.4 cm multiloculated lesion located within the caudate lobe of the liver (imaging not available). This was followed up with an MRI abdomen which redemonstrated a large 10.2 x 8.2 cm exophytic multiloculated complex cystic mass centered within the caudate lobe of the liver, with mild associated mass effect on adjacent portal vessels, common bile duct, IVC, and duodenum (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#f0010">Figure 1</a>).

His postoperative course was uncomplicated and he was discharged to home on Coumadin. Postoperatively, the patient was discussed multiple times by the institutional GI tumor board. Pelvic MRI was performed to rule out any primary lesion within the pelvis, and he was referred to surgery. His laboratory profile at that time showed very mild hyperbilirubinema (Tbil 0.92, Dbil 0.20) and an otherwise unremarkable liver profile, and the decision was made that the patient required resection of this mass, pending negative ecchinococcal serologies, which were subsequently negative. The patient's Coumadin was held and he was then taken to the operating room for an uncomplicated segment 1 liver resection. During the surgery, thorough exploration of the abdominal cavity was negative for any additional masses. His postoperative course was unremarkable except for development of a small 2 x 6 cm hematoma adjacent to the porta hepatis. Because of this, resumption of his anticoagulation was delayed.

Focal lymphovascular invasion was present. Immunohistochemically, the tumor cells were positive for neuroendocrine markers (CD56, chromogranin, and synaptophysin), MOC-31 and focally positive for CK7; whereas negative for hep par-1, glypican 3, polyclonal CEA, arginase-1, CK20, OCT4, pax 8 and CDX-2. The uninvolved liver was unremarkable and surgical margins were negative. An Octreotide Scan was performed 3 months postoperatively and was negative for any evidence of recurrent or persistent disease.

He had a prior history of overseas travel to Europe and the Middle East with the military, but his last trip was more than 2 years ago. He reported a family history significant for colon cancer and anemia, but no prior history of liver disease or tumors. He is a former smoker, and reported rare social ETOH use. His laboratory profile revealed normal liver function tests (Tbil 0.22, Dbil 0.11, AP 72, AST 26, ALT 24, Alb 4.2), serotonin level 105 (ref.: 56-244 ng/mL), CA 19-9 (6.7, ref.: 0.0 - 37.0 U/mL), and AFP (2, ref.: < 6 ng/mL). His chromogranin A level, however, was found to be elevated at 430 (ref.: 0-95 ng/mL).

As such, a diagnosis of a PHNET cannot be confidently made without a combination of a NET diagnosis on pathologic evaluation, a negative abdominal survey at the time of resection, and a negative work up for extrahepatic disease after all imaging studies have been completed in both the pre- and postoperative settings.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0125"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span></a></p><p id="p0130" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Well differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (WD-NETs) show characteristic histomorphology with nested, trabecular and/or acinar architectural patterns. The epithelioid tumor cells have moderate amounts of eosinophilic cytoplasm and round nuclei with a granular/stippled chromatin pattern, which is often referred to as “salt and pep-per”. While the morphology is often strongly suggestive of a neuroendocrine tumor, it should be noted that hepatocellular carcinoma can have a similar growth pattern (trabecular and/or acinar) and also displays cells with moderate amounts of eosinophilic cytoplasm. Hepatocellular carcinoma may show bile production however, a feature that is not seen in WDNETs. Hepatocyte specific markers, such as HepPar1 and arginase 1 further aid in this distinction and are generally negative in WDNETs and positive in most hepatocellular carcinomas. Further confirmation of the diagnosis of PHNET can be made with immunohistochemical stains, which show positivity for synaptophysin, chromogranin, CD56 (NCAM), and cytokeratins in the majority of cases. This morphologic and immunohistochemical pattern are common across WD-NETs of any site and, while some additional tests may suggest a possible primary site (e.g., CDX2 positivity may suggest gastrointestinal origin), determining whether a WDNET represents a primary or metastatic focus relies highly on the clinical context. The vast majority of WD-NETs involving the liver are metastatic in nature, generally from small intestinal or pancreatic WDNETs.</p><p id="p0135" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">WDNETs are graded based on mitotic rate and Ki-67 proliferation index, independent of primary location.

While this grading system is designed for NETs in the more common locations of small bowel, stomach, colon, and ampulla of Vater, it has been adopted to the description of PHNETs as well. The tumor grade on pathologic evaluation is important for prognosis, specifically the Ki-67 index. Patients with malignant pancreatic NETs and a Ki-67 index < 2% have been shown to have a better prognosis than those with an index ≥ 2%. This has been shown to hold true for patients with PHNETs, where the average Ki-67 index in patients without recurrent disease was found to be 1.7%.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0125"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span></a></p><p id="p0140" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Surgery with complete resection and negative margins is widely understood to be the treatment modality of choice for PHNETs, as up to 85% of tumors are resectable,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0065"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">12</span></a> and surgery yields a very good long term 5-year survival at 74-78%.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0070"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">13</span></a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0125"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span></a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0140"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">27</span></a><span class="elsevierStyleSup">-</span><a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0150"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">29</span></a> The extent of hepatic resection does not seem to impact survival, as survival rates do not differ in patients receiving simple wedge resections compared to those receiving anatomic resections (segmentectomies or lobectomies) for similar tumors.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0140"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">27</span></a> Despite appropriate surgical resection, recurrence rates remain as high as 19.8%.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> Other treatment modalities aside from surgery exist, but they have been less well studied, and thus, their role in treatment of these tumors is less well understood.

Since first being reported in 1958, there have been less than 150 cases reported in the literature. Because of the infrequent occurrence of these tumors, the pool of data available for analysis regarding these tumors is small. As such, the medical community must rely on the publication of case report data to further enlarge this data pool, with the hopes of eventually having enough data to draw meaningful, statistically significant conclusions with regard to diagnosis and management of these rare tumors. We have encountered two patients at our institution within the last year with primary hepatic neuroendocrine tumors.
