Core Tip |
This retrospective cohort chart review study provides novel data regarding the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the South of Brazil. Of 453 patients with cirrhosis attending a specialized reference clinic between March 2005 and March 2014, 75 (16.6%) developed HCC, with a cumulative incidence of 2.6%, 15.4% and 28.8% in the 1st, 5th, and 10th year respectively. Early-stage HCC was more often detected in patients undergoing strict surveillance every 6 mo. Results from this study highlight the need for strict surveillance programs favoring early diagnosis and, probably, a better prognosis.
