Olivia Phillips' fight against
hepatoblastoma - a rare malignant liver cancer occurring in children - has caught the eye of the 62-year-old, once considered the UK's most violent lag.
We describe a case arising in the small bowel wall and harboring EWSR1-CREB1 gene fusion by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, which occurred in a 33-year-old male who had previously had surgery, irradiation, and chemotherapy for childhood
hepatoblastoma. This expands the clinical spectrum of this highly aggressive neoplasm and highlights the possibility of radiation therapy as a predisposing cause.

Vascular problems-including hepatic artery aneurysm, portal vein thrombosis, and hematoma as well as neoplastic processes such as hemangioma, hepatocellular adenoma and carcinoma, infantile hemangioendothelioma, cholangiocarcinoma,
hepatoblastoma, and metastatic tumors of the liver represent the remaining etiologies.
In group VII,
Hepatoblastoma presented an IR of 0.2; all cases occurred in children less than 5 years old.
