Core Tip	The Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer system has become the reference classification for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). But it has been criticized; each group includes a broad spectrum of tumors with limited therapeutic options. For this reason, different additional scoring systems have been proposed to improve the management. Liu et al proposes the MESH score, based on a large HCC cohort. It includes six parameters used in current practice, and in a European HCC cohort, this new score appears to be simple, reliable and useful to differentiate subgroups with different prognosis for each treatment modality.
