Surgical treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma

Abstract: Local tumor control is still the most important consideration in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Surgical treatments, including liver resection and liver transplantation are, and will remain, the first-line therapeutic strategies for local control in patients with primary HCC. Although aggressive liver resection is often performed for advanced HCC in patients with a large tumor, multiple tumors, or tumors with vascular invasion, liver transplantation is the preferred option, after taking into … Show more

“…In contrast, anatomic liver resection is rationale since it is known that HCC spread along the nourishing portal venous branch distributing satellite nodules within the same anatomical segment. Thus, anatomic resection allows removal of the known tumor, as well as of potential undetectable satellite metastases [99] . Meanwhile, there is strong evidence that anatomic resection is superior to non-anatomic, i.e., atypical resection for HCC.…”
