The fibrolamellar karzinoma of the liver (FLC) as an uncommon variant of the hepatocellular karzinoma (HCC) is an indolent growing tumor. In its prior manifestation the FLC occurs at the adolescence and young adult stage. Early stage diagnosis and aggressive surgical treatment achieve better long-term results than usual resection of the HCC. ⋯ Furthermore hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy was carried out the next day. The patient's postoperative course remained uncomplicated with fast recovery. Presently, 6 months after surgery, the patient has no evidence of recurrence.

Review Comparative Study
[Efficacy of oncologic surgery. Does anesthesia influence the postoperative outcome?].
Major surgical interventions in tumour surgery are still associated with perioperative cardiopulmonary, infectious, thromboembolic, cerebral, and gastrointestinal complications. There are different prophylactic and therapeutic possibilities to anticipate or counteract these perioperative complications. The most important, including beta blockers and alpha-2-agonists for patients at coronary risk, preoperative optimisation of oxygen transport in high risk surgical patients and the concept of multimodal perioperative therapy (analgesia, early mobilisation, early enteral nutrition, and others) combined with high perioperative inspiratory oxygen concentration and maintenance of normothermia to reduce wound infection and cardiac complications are described in this paper.
