Liver Transplantation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Open accessAbstract
Liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with cirrhosis is a radical treatment of the tumor and associated precancerous state. It is potentially curative in a proportion of patients. The outcomes of early studies of liver transplantation in this indication were initially unfavorable. Selection of transplant candidates at an early stage, in the absence of extrahepatic spread, gives better survival than surgical resection and alternative nonsurgical treatments. Transarterial chemoembolization can be used for preoperative control of the disease. Adjuvant chemotherapy may be indicated in the postoperative period for the prevention of recurrence in patients with histologic features of invasiveness in the surgical specimen. Liver transplantation as the treatment of choice for early HCC in screening programs in cirrhotic patients may become limited by graft availability as the numbers of hepatitis C-related cases increase. Resection may be indicated if the waiting time is likely to be long.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
