  • Title: [Treatments for hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhosis : practical aspects].
    Author: Boudjema K.
    Journal: Ann Chir; 1998; 52(6):564-7. PubMed ID: 9752507.
    Abstract:
    Many treatments are able to eradicate or slow the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhosis. All are described in this issue of Annales de Chirurgie. These various alternative mean that treatment can be adapted to different clinical situations determined by the patient's general state, the size of the liver tumour, its extrahepatic dissemination and the functional quality of the underlying liver parenchyma. Liver hepatic transplantation, offers a good chance of cure, provided it is reserved for patients in good general condition with a small hepatocellular carcinoma confined to the liver. This situation is increasingly frequent.
