Prognostic comparison between LNM and MaVI of hepatocellular carcinoma: a multicenter population-based propensity scores matching study
This study found that the current HCC AJCC TNM staging system cannot accurately distinguish the prognosis of LNM and MaVI patients. For patients undergoing hepatectomy, HCC with LNM may obtain a better prognosis than that of HCC with MaVI. Future research requires additional clinical data to further corroborate this finding.
