Preoperative Predictors Including the Role of Inflammatory Indices in Predicting Early Recurrence After Re-resection for Recurrent Hepatocellular Carcinoma
2019
Background
Repeat liver resection (RLR) for recurrent HCC (rHCC) is a widely accepted treatment modality. However, early recurrence rate is high, frequently resulting in futile resection. We performed this study to evaluate preoperative factors, including the value of inflammatory indices, in predicting early (<1 year) recurrence in patients who underwent RLR for rHCC. This may help clinicians better select patients for RLR, while excluding cases in which RLR for rHCC would likely be futile.
