Congenital biliary atresia ranks high in the candidacy list for hepatic transplantation, and constitutes the single most frequent indication for liver replacement in a series reported from our institution.25 In 2 patients treated in this manner, hepatoma was present in the cirrhotic livers, excised at the time of transplantation. The diagnosis of hepatoma had been made pre-operatively in 1 instance, but in the other the finding of a tumour in the specimen was a surprise.
The occurrence of primary liver cell carcinoma in livers with pre-existing cirrhosis due to congenital biliary atresia is unusual. Absolon first mentioned this association in a report on thoracic duct lymph drainage for bile duct atresia.1 Three cases were subsequently reported by Okuyama.20 Fish10 and Deoras.7.
This communication reports on the 2 above-mentioned cases of congenital biliary atresia with concomitant hepatoma treated by hepatic replacement.
