Significant Improvement in Long-Term Survival after Liver Resection for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Evolving Outcomes over 20 Years
Remarkable improvements in 5-year OS and DFS were observed after curative LR for HCC, particularly in period 3. Advancements in surgical outcomes, including very low short-term mortality, along with improved surgical techniques, early detection, and refined patient selection, are likely key factors in this progress.
