Special Issue Introduction
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a major health burden–
especially in regions with endemic hepatitis B–with more than 500,000
cases diagnosed annually. Unfortunately, most patients are diagnosed
when their disease has progressed to a late stage and their liver reserve
has become very limited, making surgical resection extremely difcult,
if not impossible. The current special issue focuses on a wide range of
practical tips. Topics include recent advances in diagnosis by using
Primovistmagnetic resonance imaging scan, control of hepatitis B virus
and HCC related to the virus with the use of latest antiviral agents,
minimally invasive hepatectomy by laparoscopy and with robot-
assistance,and management of advanced/huge hepatoma with
vascular resection and reconstruction. With contribution from all experts
in the eld,we will win the battle against HCC in the future.
