LIVER CANCER

Clinics in Liver Disease, 2001
The prognosis of patients with HCC remains dismal. Even in the subgroups of patients who have the most favorable characteristics and are eligible for surgical resection, the 5-year survival rate is less than 25%. For patients with more advanced disease, the median survival time is less than 1 year.

Microenvironment of liver regeneration in liver cancer

Chinese Journal of Integrative Medicine, 2017
The occurrence and development of liver cancer are essentially the most serious outcomes of uncontrolled liver regeneration. The progression of liver cancer is inevitably related to the abnormal microenvironment of liver regeneration. The deterioration observed in the microenvironment of liver regeneration is a necessary condition for the occurrence ...

Liver regeneration, liver cancers and cyclins

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 1998
Accumulating evidence has revealed that malignant cell growth is regulated by complex mechanisms involved in genetic and epigenetic factors. Among human cancers, cancer in the liver (hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)) is characterized by the evidence that it is usually based on chronic liver diseases such as liver cirrhosis or chronic hepatitis, in which ...

Primary liver cancers

Current Opinion in Oncology, 1995
A review of the recent literature about liver cancers shows the increasing role of hepatitis C as a risk factor for the development of hepatocellular carcinoma. A new discussion has arisen with regard to the association between the use of oral contraceptives and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Cryosurgery of liver cancer

Seminars in Surgical Oncology, 1993
AbstractCryosurgery, the in situ destruction of tissue using subzero temperatures, has been used to treat hepatic metastases. Because it is a focal treatment, cryosurgery can be used in patients with unresectable lesions due to location (next to major blood vessels) or multiplicity.

Prevention of liver cancer

Current Oncology Reports, 1997
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is among the most prevalent and deadly cancers worldwide. Elevated incidence of HCC is strongly associated with hepatitis B virus infection and dietary exposure to hepatotoxic contaminants. Vaccination programs against viral hepatitis hold hope for the eventual reduction of HCC incidence, and screening of cirrhotic ...

Liver transplantation for liver cancer

World Journal of Surgery, 1982
AbstractResults in the first 100 orthotopic liver allografts performed in the Cambridge‐King's College Hospital series (1968–1980) are reported. Twenty‐two patients survived beyond a year (age range, 16–59 years). Of these, 12 were cirrhotics and 10 were primary malignancies. Of the cirrhotics, 10 are alive, with the 2 deaths resulting from cholangitis.

Cancers Metastatic to the Liver

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2020
The liver is a common site of metastatic cancer spread, and metastatic lesions are the most common malignant liver tumors. Diagnosis of liver metastases often is established based on clinical assessment, laboratory tests, and appropriate imaging. Surgical resection is the treatment of choice for resectable colorectal and neuroendocrine liver metastases.

Alcohol and liver cancer

Alcohol, 2005
Hepatocellular carcinoma is the eighth most frequent cancer in the world, accounting for approximately 500,000 deaths per year. Unlike many malignancies, hepatocellular carcinoma occurs predominantly within the context of known risk factors, with hepatic cirrhosis being the most common precursor to the development of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Small liver cancer

The Japanese Journal of Surgery, 1983
We report eight cirrhotic patients with liver cancer of less than 2 cm in diameter, and who were successfully treated by surgery. The sensitivities of diagnostic procedures for small lesions showed that alpha-feto-protein (AFP) was 75 per cent, radionuclide scanning 25 per cent, CT 33 per cent, ultrasonography 40 per cent and angiography 88 per cent ...
