Abstract

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary malignancy of the liver.Liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with cirrhosis is a radical treatment of the tumor and associated precancerous state,especially for HCC developing within an established background of chronic liver disease.Shortage of organ donors has resulted in overall increase of waiting list time with increased risk of dropout due to tumor progression.Neoadjuvant therapies,transarterial chemoembolization (TACE),radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI) have emerged as bridging therapy to control tumor growth.Although expansion of selection criteria is necessary,it should be assessed in the setting of prospective well-designed studies.This research presents German experience including single-center (medical school of Hannover) of undergoing transplantation for HCC.Rational use of liver transplantation is more beneficial for humanbeing.
