Journal ArticleDOI

Response to transarterial chemoembolization as a biological selection criterion for liver transplantation in hepatocellular carcinoma

TL;DR: Sustained response to TACE is a better selection criterion for LT than the initial assessment of tumor size or number, according to the multivariate analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sirolimus Use in Liver Transplant Recipients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Randomized, Multicenter, Open-Label Phase 3 Trial

Edward K. Geissler, +68 more
- 01 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: This trial provides the first high-level evidence base for selecting immunosuppression in LTx recipients with HCC and reveals that low-risk, rather than high- risk, patients benefited most from sirolimus; furthermore, younger recipients (age ⩽60) also benefited, as well siro Limus monotherapy patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Venous complications after orthotopic liver transplantation

TL;DR: Treatment for venous complications following 1000 orthotopic liver transplantations was dependent on the signs and symptoms of the patients, and varied considerably between patients with portal vein complications and patients suffering from complications of the vena cava.
Journal ArticleDOI

A prospective randomised, open-labeled, trial comparing sirolimus-containing versus mTOR-inhibitor-free immunosuppression in patients undergoing liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma

Andreas A. Schnitzbauer, +52 more
- 11 May 2010 - 
TL;DR: If the hypothesis is correct that mTOR inhibition can reduce HCC tumour growth while simultaneously providing immunosuppression to protect the liver allograft from rejection, patients should experience less post-transplant problems with HCC recurrence, and therefore could expect a longer and better quality of life.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radiofrequency ablation as first-line treatment in patients with early colorectal liver metastases amenable to surgery.

TL;DR: Despite striking differences in local tumor recurrence and shorter time to progression, survival in patients with early CRLM does not depend on the mode of primary hepatic treatment.
