Abstract excerpt
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: In hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the tumor protein 53 (TP53) gene is frequently mutated and the mutations have been associated with poor prognosis. We aim to retrospectively identify the relationship between TP53 mutation status, tumor size (long-axis diameter, short-axis diameter, and long-to-short-axis ratio [L/S ratio]), margin and multifocality in surgically resected HCC.
