    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Oncology
    • Hepatobiliary Malignancies
    • Childhood Cancers

    Background:

    • Hepatoblastoma is a rare primary liver cancer predominantly affecting infants and young children.
    • Early detection and understanding of its clinical presentation are crucial for patient outcomes.

    Observation:

    • This study presents five cases of hepatoblastoma in boys aged 10 months to 4 years.
    • Tumor detection in the right abdominal cavity occurred 1-9 months prior to death.
    • Liver weights ranged from 840 to 3500g, with varying degrees of intrahepatic and extrahepatic metastases.

    Findings:

    • Common causes of mortality included pulmonary cardiac insufficiency, catheterization sepsis, and hepatic insufficiency.
    • Histologically, hepatoblastoma presented as either epithelial or mixed types.
    • A higher incidence in males is suggested, mirroring trends seen in adult liver carcinoma.

    Implications:

    • The findings underscore the aggressive nature of pediatric hepatoblastoma and the critical need for timely diagnosis.
    • Understanding metastatic patterns and common causes of death can inform treatment strategies and supportive care.
    • The suggested male predominance warrants further investigation in larger cohorts.
