Core Tip

Core Tip: Chu and colleagues reported a case of pathologically successful conversion hepatectomy for advanced giant hepatocellular carcinoma after multidisciplinary therapy. We shared our views about this study and discussed the current status of unresectable liver cancer. We believe that individualized combination therapy has great potential for patients with advanced liver cancer.
