ABSTRACT
Liver transplantation may be the best curative treatment for patients with cirrhosis and primary hepatocellular carcinoma. However, tumor recurrence and metastasis is still a difficult problem of liver trans-plantation. Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy has been employed in an attempt to eliminate micrometasta-ses, and could improve long-term survival after LT for hepatocellular carcinoma. Although the specific chem-otherapy and its efficacy remain controversial, it has been widely used as a safe, feasible and effective meth-od in several clincial institutions.
