Current status and recent advances of liver transplantation for pediatric hepatoblastoma
- Keywords:
- Hepatoblastoma; Liver Transplantation; Surgical Procedures; Operative; Prognosis; Child
- Abstract:
- Hepatoblastoma is the most common primary malignant liver tumor in children.Although significant advancements have been made in early diagnosis,surgical techniques,and platinum-based chemotherapy regimens,some tumors remain unresectable even after chemotherapy.For these advanced or unresectable cases,liver transplantation has emerged as an effective treatment option.In recent years,substantial progress has been achieved in applying liver transplantation for pediatric hepatoblastoma.This article aims to summarize the current status and developments in liver transplantation in treating children with hepatoblastoma,discuss indications and contraindications,strategies and outcomes,and analyze potential complications associated with the procedure.
