Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. A child between 6 months and 5 years of age has liver tumors detected by imaging and shows an abnormally high level of serum AFP.(Note, however, that it is necessary to exclude the metastatic liver tumor by totally diagnostic imaging. In addition, when chemotherapy will be performed ahead, pathological diagnosis by biposy is preferable to be done for accurate diagnosis.) 2. A child under 6 months or more 5 years of age had intrahepatic tumor which was diagnosed by pathology. 3 In cases with liver tumor whose serum AFP is normal level, pathological diagnosis by biopsy is obtained regardless of age.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Note that, even if an intrahepatic tumor, the benign liver tumor, hepatocellular carcinoma, and metastatic liver tumors should be excluded.
