Transplantation for liver tumors: current status

Liver
B Ringe

Abstract

The question of liver transplantation for hepatobiliary malignancy has continued to generate controversial discussion. As shown by single-center studies and large databases, there is a clear indication for total hepatectomy and liver replacement under the premises of appropriate selection of suitable patients as well as of favorable type and stage of tumors. Future improvement of tumor-free patient survival can be expected from better understanding of tumor biology, including prevention and earlier detection of cancer, and effective multimodality treatment strategies.
