| Core Tip |
Despite being the world’s most widely used system for staging and therapeutic guidance in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment, the Barcelona clinic liver cancer (BCLC) system has limitation. Proposed Hong Kong liver cancer (HKLC) staging appears useful but requires validation in Western populations. This study showed that there is adequate agreement between the HKLC and BCLC systemsregarding therapeutic management of HCC in Western populations, except in cases of intermediate HCC. Although staging systems should be further refined to cover the full diversity of HCC cases, these findings suggest that the BCLC system, which is more simple and intuitive, should be applied in all HCC cases, and that in BCLC-A and, especially, BCLC-B cases, the HKLC can contribute important information regarding patient management. |
