The use of laparoscopic liver resection has rapidly increased. According to two international consensus meetings, certain resection methods are already considered standard procedures for liver resection, especially for small malignant tumors located on the liver surface or in the anterolateral segments of the liver. However, further studies and international consensus meetings are required for laparoscopic procedures to be accepted as standard procedures for highly complex hepatectomies, major hepatectomies, anatomical resections, and laparoscopic donor hepatectomies. Technical refinements are necessary because many studies have shown that negative outcomes also affect long-term outcomes after laparoscopic liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract PDF

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) shows a poor prognosis with high recurrence rate even after surgical resection. To improve prognosis of HCC patient, regular surveillance for high-risk group is recommended, but cost-benefit of the surveillance under 40 years old Asian male with hepatitis B infection is unclear. We share a 39-year-old male case which showed early recurrence and rapid extrahepatic metastasis after surgical resection for single huge HCC. Based on the pathologic finding, this case was diagnosed with ‘stemness’-related markerexpressing HCC. Further molecular classification for HCC could be beneficial to estimate individual risk for HCC recurrence and to predict prognosis.
