Conversion of unresectable hepatoma to resectable. Report of a case and review of the literature

K N Tepetes et al. Hepatogastroenterology. 2000 Jul-Aug.

Abstract

One of the most important reasons that hepatocellular carcinoma displays a poor prognosis, is the low resectability rate at the time of the diagnosis. In this study, we report a case of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma converted to resectable after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization. In addition a review of the literature is attempted.
