An autopsy case with simultaneous occurrence of hepatoma and spindle cell sarcoma in the liver was presented. These tumors arose in the left and right lobes and showed no continuity. The sarcoma metastasized in hilar lymph node of the liver and in the cervical and lumbar vertebrae, but no metastasis of the hepatoma was found except in the opposite lobe of the liver. Literature on such combinations was briefly reviewed.
