Resection for Multiple Hepatocellular Carcinomas (HCC)

September 18, 2011 updated by: Prof. Guido Torzilli, University of Milan

Hepatic Resection for Multiple Hepatocellular Carcinoma on Cirrhosis

Surgical resection in patients with multiple hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) remains controversial. The aim of this study was to investigate the outcome of a consecutive cohort of patients resected for multiple HCC, without macrovascular invasion, in order to identify clinically reliable parameters to select patients for surgery.
