Cerebral metastases from ovarian carcinoma.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Several of the large studies addressing prognosis and survival from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have been from Europe and Asia, but only a few have emanated from North America. Survival statistics from other parts of the world may not be applicable to the North American population because of etiologic, de...
