Core Tip This dual-center retrospective study validates a tightly linked aggressive pathological cluster (Edmondson grade, microvascular invasion, satellite nodules, Ki-67) in hepatocellular carcinoma. We identify Ki-67 as a core, reproducible biomarker, with a validated cutoff of 32.5% demonstrating high specificity (0.813) for predicting satellite nodules positivity across two independent centers. These findings provide multicenter pathological evidence to inform postoperative risk stratification and adjuvant therapy decisions.
