Abstract

Multiple studies had demonstrated that surgical resection provided better overall survival (OS) than other treatments even for BCLC stage B or C hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients in China.

Several studies showed transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) as adjuvant therapy could reduce tumor recurrence and prolong the disease-free survival (DFS) and OS. However, its effect is not satisfactory.
