  ABSTRACT: Combined hepatocholangiocarcinoma is a rare and unique form of primary hepatic neoplasm, expressing histopathological and phenotypic aspects of hepatocellularcarcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma in the same tumor. Diagnosis may be performed by imaging, showing typical features of both components. We present a case of a 55-year-old woman presenting with abdominal pain and a hepatic mass. The patient underwent surgery and combined hepatocholangiocarcinoma with stem cells features was confirmed on pathological analysis. There are no signs of recurrence to date. Combined hepatocholangiocarcinoma requires a preoperative diagnosis, since it is a unique entity with higher rates of local and lymph node recurrence, compared to isolated forms.
