A Comparative Study of Surgical Approaches for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Conversion versus Direct Resection
Post-conversion operations carry a higher risk of bleeding and are more likely to result in moderate to severe anemia and ascites formation in the perioperative period. However, the risk is reversible with adequate preoperative blood preparation and prompt postoperative symptomatic treatment. Conversion patients should be encouraged to undergo operating therapy when they can withstand surgical resection.
