About this Research Topic
Background: Hepatoblastoma, a prevalent malignant liver tumor in children, presents significant management challenges in pediatric oncology. Recent advancements encompass novel diagnostic methods and therapeutic options, including the application of targeted therapies and precision oncology. While the integration of multidisciplinary care has shown promise in improving outcomes, existing disparities in managing the disease across different populations underscore the need for a unified approach. Critical analysis reveals that despite progress in surgical techniques and the advent of new chemotherapeutic drugs, comprehensive solutions tailored to the individual patient are yet to reach full potential.
Goal: This Research Topic aims to dissect the intricated dynamics of hepatoblastoma management, with a focus on amalgamating the latest in therapeutic interventions, multidisciplinary strategies, and personalized medicine. The evolving capabilities in diagnostic precision and treatment specificity highlight critical questions regarding the most effective integrative care pathways and their impact on the long-term well-being of pediatric patients.
Scope: To encapsulate the breadth and depth of current innovations, we delineate the following areas as central to our inquiry:
o To gather further insights in innovative diagnostic tools and therapeutic strategies, we welcome articles addressing, but not limited to, the following themes: ● Innovative Diagnostic and Monitoring Tools ● Surgical Advances in Hepatoblastoma ● Chemotherapy and Targeted Therapies ● Personalized Medicine and Precision Oncology ● Multidisciplinary Treatment Approaches ● Clinical Trials and Research in Hepatoblastoma ● Long-term Outcomes and Survivorship, as well as Psychosocial Aspects of Care
This comprehensive exploration will help articulate a more effective and nuanced understanding of hepatoblastoma, pushing the boundaries of current research and paving the way for future advancements.
