Core Tip	Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common neoplasm and third most frequent cause of cancer deaths. Resection of HCC offers the only hope for a cure, yet post-resection recurrence is common. The effectiveness of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) as a neoadjuvant therapy for resectable HCC has not been conclusively demonstrated. All published meta-analyses have consistently failed to demonstrate its effectiveness. We believe these articles have several limitations and TACE is theoretically helpful in multinodular or infiltrative types of HCC.
