Despite aggressive surgery, the tumor recurred after six months and led to her death after a year.   Conclusion: Hepatectomy is the best strategy to achieve a long term survival in these patients, as the tumor is highly invasive, has an increased rate of recurrence and the effect of radiotherapy and chemotherapy is unclear.
