Liver transplantation for metastatic liver cancer ZHU Zhi-jun. Department of Liver Transplantation, Tianjin First Central Hospital, Tianjin 300192,China
Abstract Liver transplantation is an effective treatment for some patients with metastatic liver cancers which can’t be resected and are ineffective with other treatments. Since different tumor sources will lead to different clinical results after liver transplantation. The indication and optimal time for transplantation should be controlled strictly. Currently the source of neuroendocrine tumors, especially carcinoid, is the major indication for liver transplantation. The value of liver transplantation for liver metastases of colorectal cancer requires further research. Reports of other sources like breast cancer are very less.
