Small Hepatocellular Carcinoma With Low Tumor Marker Expression Benefits More From Anatomical Resection Than Tumors With Aggressive Biology
23 Aug 2017
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: We assessed prognostic advantage of anatomical resection (AR) over nonanatomical resection (NAR) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) according to multiplication of α-fetoprotein, des-γ-carboxyprothrombin, and tumor volume (ADV) scores. BACKGROUND: Superiority of AR over NAR is debated. ADV score is surrogate marker of postresection prognosis for solitary HCC. METHODS: This study included 1572 patients...
