Abstract
The indications and the results for liver resection for hepatocellular cancer (HCC) depend on the stage of the tumor at diagnosis, the functional reserve of the liver, and the use of suitably adapted surgical techniques. This article briefly discusses liver resection for HCC in patients who do not have chronic liver disease and then discusses liver resection for HCC in patients who have chronic liver disease.
