In immunohistochemical (IHC) tests, the adenocarcinoma cells were positive for cytokeratin-7 (CK7), cytokeratin-19 (CK19), CD56, and epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), but negative for hepatocellular carcinoma markers such as Glypican-3 (date not shown). This evidence concerns the gene MUC1 and hepatocellular carcinoma.
