Reviewer's report:  
 
My comment as below:  
This case report is the most important evidence that liver transplantation should not be performed 
in hepatic angiosarco mas. So I think it would be appropriate to publish this case report. Authors 
can add a few sentences about the type of liver transplantation (living, cadaveric).  
In addition, in conclusion section, it should be stated that liver transplantation option shou ld not 
be considered in hepatic angiosarcoma regardless of the reason.
