Key Words Hepatocellular carcinoma; Liver resection; Liver cirrhosis; Prognosis; Survival study
Core Tip European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL)/American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) guidelines recommend liver resection (LR) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) only for single nodules of any size in patients without tumor related symptoms, no clinically significant portal hypertension and normal bilirubin. In this study we investigated the prognostic factors for survival of patients who underwent LR for HCC. We built a prognostic scoring system to stratify post-resection prognosis, and we identified a larger subset of patients with an expected survival that equates that of patients undergoing LR according to guidelines. Thus, the current EASL/AASLD indications for LR can be safely expanded, with no detrimental effect on patients’ prognosis.
