Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Liver cancer is a topic which is receiving increasing attention. Hepatocellular carcinomas are still the primary liver cancers with the highest prevalence and death toll worldwide. Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is also on the rise, and an ever-increasing number of rare liver cancers are being reported. Epidemiology, pathogenesis and response to surgical, locoregional and systemic treatments are all elements of particular interest which need further elucidation by future studies. This Special Issue of Livers will cover all aspects, and welcomes both original research and comprehensive review papers to guide a wide readership toward the most recent and ground-breaking research in this complex field.
Dr. Francesco Tovoli
