A case of neuroendocrine carcinoma with massive invasion to the liver and multiorgan causing acute liver failure.

We experienced a case of NEC causing ALF and multi-organ invasion with a rapidly deteriorating course. Liver metastasis from a neuroendocrine tumor/neoplasm is common, while a primary hepatic neuroendocrine tumor/neoplasm is extremely rare. We could not determine PHNEC; however, it was highly suspected. Further studies are needed to elucidate the pathogenesis of this rare disease.
