To evaluate clinical and laboratory findings of these patients and the efficacy of liver transplantation in children with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and hepatoblastoma (HB) associated with tyrosinemia. Among 113 children with liver tumors diagnosed between 1972 and 2004 five patients had HCC or HB associated with tyrosinemia. The age at diagnosis of the HCC or HB ranged from 9.5 to 17 yr and male:female ratio was 1:4. During regular clinic visits for tyrosinemia, elevated alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) was detected in all patients. AFP levels ranged between 13.7 and 29 340 IU/mL. Radiological studies including ultrasound, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed heterogeneous parenchyma and nodules in the liver. The patients did not have any metastatic disease. The time from diagnosis of tyrosinemia to HCC or HB ranged from 9.25 to 15.25 yr. Histopathologically, four patients have been diagnosed as HCC and one patient had HB. All patients were given chemotherapy including cisplatin and adriamycin. In three patients, living-related liver transplantation was performed. They had no treatment after transplantation. All of them are disease free. One patient was treated with chemotherapy and right hepatectomy. She had no suitable donor for living-related liver transplantation. Three months after completing chemotherapy, she had recurrent tumor in the left lobe of the liver and she died with progressive disease. The last patient whose parents were not suitable as donors for living-related liver transplantation is waiting for a deceased donor graft. All patients had limited disease to liver due to close clinical and radiological follow up for tyrosinemia. In these patients liver transplantation is curative both for liver tumor and tyrosinemia. © 2006 Blackwell Munksgaard.
