Abstract
Cirrhosis-like hepatocellular carcinoma is a rare subtype of hepatocellular carcinoma that is mostly diagnosed at time of liver transplantation or autopsy and is not clinically suspected preoperatively or premortem. This entity is characterized by numerous distinct neoplastic foci that arise within regenerative cirrhotic nodules. Knowledge of this sub-type of HCC is important for comprehensive examination of explanted and autopsy liver specimens. The clinical presentation, gross, histology, and prognosis are discussed in this review.
