Dear Colleagues,It is my great pleasure to welcome all of you in Milano for the 1st edition of the International Meeting of the Easternand Western Association on Liver Tumors. An Association and a Meeting which follow the more than 15 years traditionof the HCC Eastern & Western Experiences Meetings which started in Paris in 1998 and concluded in Tokyo in 2013.They were biennial appointments which trapped the International Scientific Community somewhere in the world for2-3 days debating on HCC and the therapeutical solution for its control: Paris, Tokyo, Lodi (Italy), Hong Kong, Houston,Seoul, Paris and Tokyo again, where the places which hosted this successful initiative. Almost each of those eventsresulted in prestigious monograph, which summarized the highlights of the respective meetings. Then Hepatogastroenterology twice, Liver Transplantation, Annals of Surgical Oncology, Journal of HBP Sciences,and Liver Cancer hosted the highlights of the meetings in Paris, Tokyo, Lodi, Houston, Seoul and Tokyo, respectively.This success, the growing therapeutical offer of medical oncology, interventional radiology, radiotherapy ecc… otherthan that of both resective and transplant surgery, for HCC but also for other liver tumors have induced the foundersof the HCC Eastern & Western meeting to shift to Meetings dealing with the whole spectrum of liver tumors. In that,of course, the original aims of representing a moment of debate on practical issues comparing different perspectivein looking at the same problem from the Eastern rather than the Western side of the world will remain solid bases. The recently indexed journal Liver Cancer will be officially our scientific output maintaining the tradition and effortof having something which will traduce words and thinking occurred in prestigious and dense meetings in writtenand permanent documents available for the entire scientific community worldwide. A new challenge, which I havethe honor together with my team, to inaugurate herein at the Humanitas Research Hospital and Humanitas University.Passion, quality, and endurance of the friends who start with me this renewed adventure and of all of you, will certainlyprovide for now and the future valuable contribution in finding new solution for relieving and curing all those patientscarrier of a liver tumor in any corner of the world.

My warmest welcome to Milano and my best wishes for a profitable, and enjoyable stay with us.

Guido Torzilli, MD, PhD, FACS
