Abstract
- Researchers at the University of Colorado have presented findings on the treatment of hepatoblastomas, a type of liver cancer, in a 3-year-old male patient. The patient had stage IV hepatoblastoma with tumor involvement in the portal vein and superior mesenteric vein, as well as brain and lung metastases. After undergoing liver transplant and wedge resections for lung recurrences, the patient experienced a third recurrence in the superior mesenteric vein. This recurrence was managed with a pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy with superior mesenteric vein resection and reconstruction. The research has been peer-reviewed and more information can be obtained from the University of Colorado. [Extracted from the article]
