Description
Sang-Hoon Kim and co-authors review liver transplant results for a rare mixed liver cancer, in this 2025 study. The tumor blends two cancers in one: hepatocellular carcinoma and bile duct cancer. Its outlook is poor, and whether transplant helps has been unclear. The team turned to Korea's national organ transplant registry for cases treated between 2014 and 2019.
Forty patients who received a transplant for this mixed cancer formed the study group. Survival was analyzed against clinical and tumor traits to find what forecast a better or worse course. Registry data give a rare tumor the numbers no single hospital could gather. The findings can help teams decide which patients with this hard diagnosis might still gain from a transplant.
