In recent years. We have various treatment options for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), including hepatic resection, transcatheter hepatic artery embolization (TAE), and percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI). However, some cases of HCCs are not suitable for these therapies due to their liver function and location of tumors. For some of these HCCs, we have developed laparoscopic microwave coagulonecrotic therapy (L-MCNT). The case of this report was 57-year-old man. The tumor was located in segment 8. The duration of MCNT was 30 minutes. The period of hospitalization after MCNT was 14days. Coagulated area involving tumor and surrounding tissue was not enhanced by postoperative dynamic CAT scan. L-MCNT is useful therapy for some HCCs.
