Remnant vital tissue following locoregional therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma: another player in the game
2018
: The applicability of liver transplantation (LT) as a curative option for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is limited by organ shortage. In addition to tumor size and number, other variables, particularly those that are surrogates of tumor biology should be incorporated into the allocation policies to improve the estimation of post-LT benefit. In this issue of Transplant International, Manzia et al. analyze the role of remnant vital tissue (RVT) of the target lesion after locoregional therapies (LRT) in predicting post-LT HCC recurrence This article is protected by copyright.
