Incidence and outcomes of acute kidney injury in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma after liver transplantation.
To describe the incidence and outcomes linked with acute kidney injury (AKI) after liver transplantation (LT) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. ⋯ Post-LT AKI is not an uncommon complication. Intra-operative hemodynamic instability is crucial in the development of post-LT AKI and deserves more attention. Most post-LT AKI is transient and reversible, while the prolonged form may predict a decrease survival.

The effect of adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: a matched pair analysis.
The purpose of this study was to identify prognostic factors of patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) treated with resection and to investigate the effect of adjuvant chemotherapy (CT). ⋯ We identified several prognostic factors for patients with ICC treated with resection. Our data support the use of adjuvant CT in patients with ICC. The results of prospective randomized controlled studies will clarify the role of adjuvant CT in the future.
