| Summary: | Nested stromal epithelial tumor (NSET) of the liver is an extremely rare and unusual liver neoplasm with limited evidence of best practice for management. We report a 28-year-old male with NSET managed with primary partial hepatectomy with subsequent disease recurrence with follow-up metastectomy and successful radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Management of NSET of the liver requires a multidisciplinary approach. RFA proves beneficial in a patient with disease recurrence following tumor resection. In order to validate the regular use of RFA, more long term studies would be required. |
