Hae Won Lee, Gi‐Won Song, Sung‐Gyu Lee, Jong Man Kim, Jae‐Won Joh, Dai Hoon Han, Soon Il Kim, Seong Hoon Kim, Dong‐Sik Kim, Jai Young Cho, Kyung‐Suk Suh – 25 March 2018 – Although far advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is generally considered a contraindication for liver transplantation (LT), biologically favorable tumors among them could show acceptable results. However, it is still unclear which tumors can be treated with LT. Data were collected on adult patients who underwent LT for HCC beyond the Milan criteria in 8 Korean LT centers between January 2000 and June 2013.
