Abstract
Eighteen children with primary hepatic cancer experienced at our Department during past 20 years were reviewed and discussed for the problems and changing results by an imporvement of therapeutic measures. It was found that early diagnosis and extensive hepatic resection are the most important factors to improve that result of treatment. The histological and clinical findings of the tumor provides an important influence on the prognosis of the patients. When the tumor is too large to carry out primary resection, an secondary procedure for resection should be attempted, when the tumor becomes smaller after adequate chemotherapy.
