  abstract = {{H}epatocellular carcinoma ({HCC}) is one of the most predominant tumor types worldwide, being particularly prevalent in sub-{S}aharan {A}frica and {E}ast {A}sia. {H}owever, {HCC} is inexplicably underreported in {S}outh {A}merica, despite unsettling clinical epidemiological trends of the disease on this continent. {H}ere, we review the current knowledge on {HCC} presentation in {P}eru. {W}e emphasize the well-documented occurrence of an early-age nosological form of the disease in {A}ndean descent populations. {W}e further discuss the reasons for such {HCC} clinical presentation, as well as the implications for liver cancer screening, management, and prevention.},
