Core Tip Liver transplantation for malignancy is a medical and ethical challenge with regard to oncologic outcome and allocation justice. Childhood hepatoblastoma, epithelioid hemangioendothelioma, limited hepatocellular carcinoma and fibrolamellar carcinoma are proven indications for liver transplantation. Recent clinical trials have suggested cholangiocellular adenocarcinoma and hepatic metastases originating from neuroendocrine tumors as new indications in selected patients. Ongoing research may further widen indications for liver transplantation in malignant disease and therefore also complicate organ allocation. Living-donor liver transplantation may offer a solution for selected patients.
