Core Tip	Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a growing malignancy with poor survival. New therapies for the hepatitis C virus may help prevent the development of this malignancy, however the growing obesity epidemic will continue to foster new cases of HCC. With the aid of advances in imaging patients might be diagnosed earlier making them candidates for curative resection or transplantation. In addition, with a growing population of patients undergoing surgery after being down-staged with locoregional therapy, we expect an improvement in long-term outcomes for HCC patients.
