Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC); aetiological considerations

Abstract - 2210 PDF - 864
Omar Abdel-Rahman

Abstract


Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a commonly occurring cancer worldwide. The aetiology of HCC, often associated with different molecular carcinogenic pathways, differs geographically; with chronic viral hepatitis being the main cause in most localities. Different driving mutations resulting from distinct carcinogenic pathways potentially impact the choice of effective therapies for HCC.

Keywords


HCC; aetiology; biology
