Article Synopsis
- The study looked at 144 patients who had liver cancer come back after a liver transplant to see if different treatments helped them live longer.
- They found that patients who got a "radical" treatment (more aggressive) lived longer than those who received "palliative" care (less intense).
- The results showed that the 50 patients who had the radical treatment survived for about 31 months on average, while those who had the palliative treatment only survived about 19 months.

Alternative imaging modalities should be contemplated when uncertainties arise to minimize the risk of inadvertent vascular injuries.
