Spontaneous regression of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma is extremely rare. A 66-year-old Taiwanese male patient with liver cirrhosis related to chronic hepatitis C presented with hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein thrombosis. At first, he refused curative therapy, except for silymarin medicine. Spontaneous regression of hepatocellular carcinoma occurred with a decline in tumour size ...

While the cytological features of hepatocellular carcinoma on fine needle aspiration cytology are well described, cases of hepatocellular carcinoma with malignant cells in ascitic fluid and their characteristics are not. A patient is described with cirrhosis resulting from chronic hepatitis B virus infection, ascites, and hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosed by effusion cytology. The malignant ce...

Human cystic echinococcosis is a zoonosis caused by the larval cestode Echinococcus granulosus. Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the most common types of cancer in the whole world including China. A few reports about cystic echinococcosis concurrent with hepatocellular carcinoma were noted until now. In addition, the association between these two diseases is still not well defined as the case...

Case Reports of the Spontaneous regression or remission hepatocellular carcinoma was studied. Two common factors were noted among prolonged spontaneous carcinoma. Low blood oxygen and a short steady rapid growth before It is suggested that faced with low has possibly resulted in becoming vulnerable to an immune response. The primary tumor not new metastases.

Hepatocellular carcinoma has a poor prognosis due to its rapid development and early metastasis. In this report, we characterized the metabolic features of hepatocellular carcinoma using a nontargeted metabolic profiling strategy based on liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Fifty pairs of liver cancer samples and matched normal tissues were collected from patients having hepatocellular car...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Evidence suggests that sustained virologic response to interferon treatment decreases incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with hepatitis C virus cirrhosis. This study was designed to compare the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma among cirrhotic patients exposed to interferon based treatment with or without achieving a sustained virological response, i...

Introduction. Hepatocellular carcinoma is a serious problem for patients with hemophilia. Hepatitis C virus infection the most common comorbidity in adult inherited bleeding disorders, including Case Report. This case report of 65-year-old male patient hemophilia A and hepatocellular carcinoma. Sorafenib treatment was initiated at dose 400 mg/day, after 50% reduction. In order to prevent episod...

DNA methyltransferase 3B (DNMT3B), one of methyltransferases has many roles in methylation and cancer pathogenesis. However, its clinical prognostic value was not studied hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study, we analyzed DNMT3B expression HCC by public big data, The Cancer Genome Atlas. Primary data about total 360 were downloaded clinicopathological implication analyzed. M stage (p = ...

Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) converts the superoxide anion into H(2)O(2), which, unless it is detoxified by glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPx1), can increase hepatic iron and can react with iron to form genotoxic compounds. We investigated the role of Ala/Val-MnSOD and Pro/Leu-GPx1 polymorphisms on hepatic iron accumulation and hepatocellular carcinoma development in patients with alcohol...

TMEM16A plays an important role in cell proliferation in various cancers. However, less was known about the expression and role of TMEM16A in hepatocellular carcinoma. We screened the expression of TMEM16A in patients' hepatocellular carcinoma tissues, and also analyzed the biological function of hepatocellular carcinoma cells by knockdown of TMEM16A, as well as the expression of MAPK signaling...
