Cohort study was performed in year 2015-2021. Clinical presentations at the time of diagnosis were recorded from electronical health record. All HCC patients were followed up until death. One-year survival based on staging was assessed using log rank test and presented with Kaplan Meier curve. Results. A total of 799 HCC patients were included. Majority of HCC patients were male, 619 patients (77.5%), and aged 55 (SD 11.9) years. Hepatitis B was the major etiology, found in 500 patients (62.6%). Median of alfa feto-protein (AFP) was 1,109 (0.8-3,462,499) ng/ml. At the time of diagnosis, Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage C (37.7%) was the most commonly found. Portal vein thrombosis was found in 205 patients (25.7%). There were 271 (33.9%) HCC patients received curative and palliative treatment, and others had supportive care. One year survival rate of HCC was 61.2%. One year survival rate of HCC based on staging for BCLC A, BCLC B, BCLC C, and BCLC D were 91.1%, 68.6%, 47.6%, and 13.3%, respectively (log-rank test: p<0.001). Conclusion.
