Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma is regarded as an aggressive tumour with a poor short-term prognosis. Recent research has suggested that additional aetiological factors may be involved in hepatocarcinogenesis. The development of orthotopic liver transplantation has offered renewed hope for disease-free survival.
