Physical examination done revealed sever epigastric pain and generalized jaundice. Work ups done (CT scan, USG of the abdomen) are consistent with liver malignancy, with FNAB findings of adenocarcinoma. Palliation was only contemplated. Patient expired on the 28th hospital day and post mortem examination was done. Autopsy findings were centered on the liver which on microscopic examination revealed evidence of combined hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma, with extensive intrahepatic spread and multiple metastases.
