Abstract

<p>We present a case of biliary bleeding caused by gallbladder perforation caused by a tumor that occurred immediately after combination therapy with atezolizumab and bevacizumab for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. The male patient in his 70s with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma was treated with combination therapy of atezolizumab and bevacizumab on day 1 and experienced epigastralgia on day 2. On day 3, we determined that biliary obstruction had occurred due to biliary bleeding caused by gallbladder perforation caused by the tumor, and we performed biliary drainage via emergency endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. To treat tumor bleeding from the tumor, we used hepatic artery embolization of tumor blood vessel A6 on day 6. Bevacizumab was thought to have caused the biliary hemorrhage, so the combination therapy of atezolizumab and bevacizumab was stopped, lenvatinib was introduced, and subsequent CT revealed tumor shrinkage.</p>
