Primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the liveris rare. Totally nine such cases have been reportedin the literature. Primary SCC of the liver has beenreported to be associated with hepatic teratoma,hepatic cyst, or hepatolithiasis. Complete remission ofpoorly differentiated SCC of the liver could be achievedby systemic chemotherapy followed by surgery orremarkably respond to hepatic arterial injection of lowdose chemotherapeutic drugs. Here we report the fi rstcase of primary SCC of the liver presenting as a solidtumor and receiving successful hepatic resection with9-mo disease free survival.
