Surgery for malignant liver tumors
Journal of Cancer Research and Therapeutics, 10/27/09

Shukla PJ et al. – Surgery continues to remain an important modality of treatment of malignant hepatic neoplasms amenable to resection. Advancements in imaging modalities coupled with the development of complimentary modalities like thermal ablative therapies and interventional radiology (e.g., PVE) will provide hepatic surgeons more options when dealing with such tumors. While laparoscopy does provide useful adjuvant options including staging (using ultrasonography) and performance of RFA, its benefit in resection of malignant neoplasms of the liver has yet to be completely understood.
