Looking into the future (remnant liver)
The most common primary malignancy of the liver is hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) (1). Approximately 80% of patients with HCC show chronic liver disease and cirrhosis. Chronic infection with hepatitis B or C virus, alcoholic liver disease and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis are the most frequent causes for developing liver cirrhosis (2).
