Overview

The feasibility of surgery depends on the stage of hepatocellular carcinoma at time of diagnosis.

Surgery

Liver transplant

  • Liver transplantation is the replacement of the diseased liver with a cadaver liver or a live donor lobe.
  • Historically, the survival rates after liver transplantation have been low (20%-36%). Recent improvement in the survival rates (44% to 78%) due to the adoption of Milan criteria at US transplantation centers. If the tumor has metastasized, the immuno-suppressant post-transplant drugs decrease the chance of survival.[1][2][3]

Techniques

Surgical resection

  • If diagnosed early, surgical resection with a safety margin can be considered to remove a small or slowly growing tumors. This treatment offers the best prognosis for long-term survival. The 5 year over all survival rate for patients who undergo surgical resection is 27% to 70%.[1] Unfortunately, due to the severity of the tumor and poor liver functions, it's only possible in 10-15% of hepatocellular carcinoma cases. Resection in cirrhotic patients carries high morbidity and mortality rates.
