| Core Tip |
We herein present two successful cases of "conversion Therapy for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)" achieved mainly by palliative surgery combined with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) plus immunotherapy and tyrosine kinase inhibitors. For some selected advanced HCC with a high risk of tumor overload and metastasis, if liver function permits, early palliative surgery combined with local subsequent TACE, along with targeted and immunotherapy, may be a tolerable and effective strategy, which may provide the opportunity for the ultimate cure for the initially unresectable HCC and effectively improve the long-term survival based on the promising prospects of combined targeted and immunotherapy. |
