Brief Summary

Anatomical liver resection was widely accepted as first line curative therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma. However, number of retrospective clinical studies showed no priority of anatomical resection for hepatocellular, compared with non-anatomical resection. Surgical resection margin is a essential factor that may affect tumor prognosis. It is controversial whether adequate liver resection margin is associated with improved survival outcome in patients with hepatocellular. There was few prospective clinical trial to investigate whether anatomical liver resection is superior to non-anatomical resection or liver resection with adequate margin is superior to that with inadequate margin. This prospective clinical trial aims at fix these issues.
