HCC is becoming one of the most common causes of cancer-related death worldwide. It is the fifth most common malignancy in men and the ninth in women, with an estimated 500,000 to 1 million new cases annually around the world. Independent of its cause, cirrhosis is considered a major clinical and histopathological risk factor for HCC development. Five percent of all cirrhotic patients develop HCC every year. Diagnostic tools for HCC include blood tests, high-quality imaging studies and liver biopsy. The treatment of HCC depends on the size and location of the HCC and includes surgical resection, liver transplantation, endovascular approaches, percutaneous ablation, and medical treatments. The book is organized into four parts – overview, diagnosis, management strategies, and recommendations – and aims to provide surgeons and clinicians with a valuable resource for complete and up-to-date research on the clinical aspects and management of HCC. 2022-10-14T10:39:31Z 2022-10-14T10:39:31Z 2023 book ONIX_20221014_9783031093715_14 9783031093715 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/58630 eng Updates in Surgery application/pdf n/a 978-3-031-09371-5.pdf https://link.springer.com/978-3-031-09371-5 Springer Nature Springer 10.1007/978-3-031-09371-5 10.1007/978-3-031-09371-5 6c6992af-b843-4f46-859c-f6e9998e40d5 b8ff8fc6-a656-47c0-89a4-765492c132fe 9783031093715 Springer 217 Cham [...] open access
