  • Title: Pathology of hepatocellular carcinoma.
    Author: Mori W, Machinami R, Tanaka K.
    Journal: Pathol Res Pract; 1980; 169(1):4-20. PubMed ID: 6159615.
    Abstract:
    Rather rapid and brief over-view of pathology of hepatocellular carcinoma has been made, where the connection between morphology and virology or biochemistry is stressed as the main focus of today's pathology. Thus, existence of some relation between hepatitis virus and hepatocellualr carcinoma seems to be definite for us. However, it is still very difficult to decide whether the relationship is a direct or indirect one. High incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma also in Budd-Chiari's cirrhosis and schistoma-induced cirrhosis seems to suggest existence of the high risk type of cirrhosis for hepatocellular carcinoma development, irrespective of the cause of cirrhosis itself, although HB antigen might be playing some role in these cases especially in the latter.
