Abstract

Summary. The clinical case of refractory hepatoblastoma with lethal outcome followed by pathomorphological verification has been analyzed. The true causes of hepatoblastoma development remain unknown. The prognostic factors of the disease require detailed study in complex investigations that would include histological, clinical, laboratory, and immunohistochemical characteristics. However, comparing clinical and histopathological parameters with CD10 expression could have a diagnostic role and may be useful in understanding tumorigenesis and prognostic analysis of a given tumor.
