Sažetak
Liver tumours count for approximately 2% of all childhood tumours and almost 70% of them are malignant. Correct diagnosis considering type, size, and location of the tumour is crucial for the right treatment strategy. Although surgical resection still remains the most important factor for survival, when combined with chemotherapy, the survival rates will raise. Liver transplantation is also considered in some cases of liver tumours. Since 1991 to 2010 we have treated 16 children with liver tumours. Our experience together with review of recent literature is presented here.
