Abstract
The most common cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis. It is proposed that precancerous lesions of HCC include all stages of the disease, from dysplastic foci (DF), and dysplastic nodule (DN), to early HCC (eHCC) and progressed HCC (pHCC), which is a complex multi-step process. Accurately identifying precancerous hepatocellular lesions can significantly impact the early detection and treatment of HCC. The changes in high-grade dysplastic nodules (HGDN) were similar to those seen in HCC, and the risk of malignant transformation significantly increased. Nevertheless, it is challenging to diagnose precancerous lesions of HCC. We integrated the literature and combined imaging, pathology, laboratory, and other relevant examinations to improve the accuracy of the diagnosis of precancerous lesions.
