NCT05352204

Brief Summary

Micronecrosis is a novel pathological feature of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study was aimed at evaluating the effect of tumor micronecrosis on postoperative transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) in patients with hepatocellular carcinomas, and further exploring the value of micronecrosis for guiding TACE in HCC management.

Study Population

From June 2014 to April 2018, HCC patients who underwent liver resection in our center were retrospectively reviewed.

You may qualify if:

  • (1) pathologically confirmed HCC (2) achievement of R0 resection.

You may not qualify if:

  • (1) simultaneous presence of other tumors ; (2) receipt of preoperative anti-tumoral treatments; (3) concurrent treatment with other antitumoral therapies in combination with TACE; (4) tumor necrosis that could be observed by gross examination; (5) a lack of necessary preoperative laboratory test results.
