Prognostic implications of CK19 positivity in patients with early recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma after hepatic resection undergoing transarterial chemoembolization
In patients with early rHCC after hepatic resection, those with CK19-positive expression had poorer survival outcomes following TACE compared to CK19-negative patients. These findings suggest the need for additional therapies to improve survival in CK19-positive individuals.
