Abstract:
Studies were performed on 44 cases of hepatocirrhosis found by laparoscopy and 75 cases resulting in death from hepatocirrhosis in order to shed light on the etiology of this disease.
Thanks to progress in radiographic diagnosis, it has become possible to detect minute tumors in the liver. In our hospital, six patients have been diagnosed as having less than 5 cm tumors in the liver. The diagnositic procedures that had led to the detection of the lesions were reviewed.
Furthermore, the treatment methods of liver cancer were analyzed using the ten cases.
