1905 H. D. Rolleston Dis. Liver 457 The term ‘hepatoma’ was suggested by Sabourin to describe the transitional stage between adenoma and carcinoma.
1912 H. D. Rolleston Dis. Liver (ed. 2) 474 This condition [sc. primary carcinoma developing in a cirrhotic liver] was described..as Hepatoma by Rénon, Géraudel, and Monier-Vinard who insist that it is not a carcinoma. ‘Hepatoma’, also employed by Sabourin..is a confusing title.
1934 Brit. Jrnl. Surg. 21 684 The next advance of note was made by Yamagiura in 1911. He..made two simple divisions: (1) Hepatoma, i.e., carcinoma of hepatic cells; and (2) Cholangioma, i.e., carcinoma of bile-ducts. The term ‘hepatoma’ had previously been used by Sabourin in reference to a condition of nodular hyperplasia which in his opinion was a transitional stage between adenoma and carcinoma. Most modern writers, however, accept Yamagiura's interpretation, and use it as a term for primary carcinoma of the liver cells.
1971 New Scientist 17 June 668/3 From one strain of a mouse hepatoma they have a factor which they describe as being ‘a heat stable molecule of low molecular weight’.
