Core Tip	Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common cancers in Asia. Patients with un­resectable tumor disease require more options for in-principle curative therapies. We report here a patient with a large unresectable HCC due to vascular invasion and satellite metastases, who showed remarkable tumor shrinkage after completing proton beam therapy 4 years ago and who is still free of tumor recurrence to date.
