Background: Liver transplantation (LT) is a well-established treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but there are ongoing debates regarding outcomes and selection. This study examines the experience of LT for HCC at a high-volume centre.
Methods: A prospectively maintained database was used to identify HCC patients undergoing LT from 2000 to 2020 with more than or equal to 3-years follow-up.
Purpose: Liver metastases occur in about 50% of colorectal cancer cases and drive patient outcomes. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is emerging as a diagnostic, surveillance, and tumor mutational information tool.
Methods: Patients with colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CCLM) seen in a multidisciplinary liver tumor clinic from January to August 2022 received ctDNA testing on each visit.
Introduction: Colorectal cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Metastatic liver disease develops in 50% of cases and drives patient outcomes. Although the ideal treatment for colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) is resection, only a third of patients are suitable for this approach.

Article Synopsis
- Eating fruits and vegetables is good for heart health, but scientists aren't totally sure how it works yet.
- Researchers found that a special part of flavonoids, called 4-HPAA, helps reduce health problems caused by a high-fat diet.
- Only a tiny number of people have the right bacteria in their guts to make 4-HPAA from flavonoids, which shows that not everyone can get these health benefits from their diet.
