Spontaneous Regression of Intrahepatic Adenocarcinoma after Needle Biopsy: A Case Report and Literature Review
Key Points
Tumor regression occurs after EUS-FNA in intrahepatic adenocarcinoma, indicating immune response involvement.
The case illustrates a notable example where biopsy may trigger unexpected healing in cancer.
Assessment of tissue samples from the biopsy revealed changes suggesting immune activation.
This finding may highlight new avenues for treatment strategies focused on immune responses.
Abstract
This case highlights the possibility of tumor regression in intrahepatic adenocarcinoma following EUS-FNA, potentially triggered by an immune response.
