case_images: Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) demonstrated multiple hypervascular tumors in the right hepatic lobe (Fig. 1).
case_images: The pathological findings of the liver biopsy specimen. a The tumor was composed of moderately differentiated HCC. b Iron deposition in hepatocytes was observed in nontumor tissue. HE. x400.

case_images: Tumor biopsy revealed that the tumor comprised of moderately differentiated HCC (Fig. 2a). Nontumor tissue showed scarce inflammation and fibrosis, although iron deposition was observed in hepatocytes (Fig. 2b).
case_images: Findings of lipiodol-CT. CT conducted after TAE showed lipiodol accumulation in the tumors.
