Hepatocellular carcinoma is a malignant tumor of hepatocytes that often has hidden presentation and rapid progression. Early stage HCC has no obvious symptoms and is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage, making it difficult to treat with only supportive and symptomatic treatment. Recent advancements in medical technology have led to the development of comprehensive treatment methods based on surgery.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a malignant tumor of hepatocytes. It is a common malignant tumor of the digestive system that often has initially hidden presentation followed by rapid progression. There are no obvious symptoms in the early stage of HCC. When diagnosed, most patients have locally advanced tumor or distant metas-tasis; therefore, HCC is difficult to treat and only supportive and symptomatic treatment is adopted. The prognosis is poor and survival time is short. How to effectively treat HCC is important clinically. In recent years, advances in medical technology have resulted in comprehensive treatment methods based on surgery.
