Abstract

Primary Hepatic Osteosarcoma is a very rare tumor with very few literatures available till date. We report a case of 61 year old male presented with abdominal pain and distention. MRI/CT showed a large heterogenous lesion in the liver, which turned out to be primary hepatic osteosarcoma,  and confirmed using Immunohistochemistry,  after ruling out metastatic deposits
