Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide as well as in Egypt. Despite improvements in HCC therapy, the prognosis for HCC patients remains poor. Today molecular, genomic and epigenomic aberrations in tumors are being deeply investigated. Many biomarkers were associated to HCC onset, and they could be useful for clinicians, but all show some limitations and no one is so early to predict the HCC onset.
