Key Words Hepatocellular carcinoma; Aggressiveness index; Liver function; Transarterial chemoembolization; Survival
Core Tip Our cohort’s population included patients with multiple underlying liver diseases and can be widely generalized. The aggressiveness index (AgI) was correlated with survival. AgI > 4 was associated with decreased survival. Combining the AgI with elevated GGTP and ALKP levels improved its prognostic yield in our patient population. We validated the AgI as a prognostic tool to predict overall survival in a novel population of hepatocellular carcinoma patients undergoing transarterial chemoembolization.
