title: Primary tumours of the liver: a review of 249 cases.
abstract: A total of 249 primary liver tumours was found in a 12-year necropsy and biopsy material. The majority of cases were liver carcinomas underlying liver cirrhosis, but several rare types were also observed. Histological classification, liver tissue changes around the tumours as well as the electron microscopic features of the tumours are discussed. Around the tumours three different types of dysplasia were noted and it is considered important to carry out further investigations to establish whether or not they are genuine precancerous conditions.
