This malignancy neoplasms commonly occurs all around the world. The frequency of morbidity on this disease is correlated with frequency of HBV and HCV infections in the population. That is caused due to the pathogenic effects of these viruses, among others on liver cells, affecting carcinogenesis. Appropriate and early treatment of infection reduces the chance of developing cancer. In our article we present the case, 63-years-old male, with primary hepatocellular carcinoma correlated with hepatitis B virus infection. Unfortunately, the neoplasm was diagnosed too late, and despite the comprehensive treatment introduced, the patient died. KEY WORDS: primary hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC, HBV infection
