LIVER TUMORS IN CHILDHOOD
Liver tumors count for aproximately 2% of all childhood tumors and almost 70% of them are malignant. Most of them are presenting as palpable abdominal mass. Correct diagnosis considering type, size and localization of the tumor is crucial for the right treatment strategy. Although surgical resection still remains the most important factor for survival, when combined with chemotherapy, the survival rates will raise. Liver transplantation is also considered in some cases of liver tumors. Since 1991. to 2008. we have treated 13 children with liver tumors. Our experience together with review of recent literature is presented here.
