Core Tip Patients with intermediate-stage (BCLC-B) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represent a highly heterogeneous group, making the establishment of uniform treatment guidelines particularly challenging. Traditionally, transarterial chemoembolization has been the standard of care for this stage. However, emerging evidence suggests that liver resection may offer superior outcomes in a carefully selected subset of patients. This literature review synthesizes current research on treatment strategies for BCLC-B HCC, with a particular emphasis on the evolving role and indications for surgical intervention.
