Core Tip |
This retrospective study evaluated whether pathologically early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) exhibited local tumor progression after radiofrequency ablation (RFA) less often than typical HCC. Among the 50 pathologically early HCCs, 49 (98%) of the nodules did not exhibit local tumor progression. However, 1 nodule (2%) was associated with a local tumor progression found 636 d after RFA. Among the 187 typical HCCs, 46 (24.6%) of the nodules exhibited local tumor progression after RFA. Pathologically early HCC was significantly associated with a lower rate of local tumor progression, compared with typical HCC, when evaluated using a log-rank test (P = 0.002). |
