Single-Center Experience of Recurrence Patterns and Survival Analyses of Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma and Liver Transplant.

CONCLUSIONS: Multidisciplinary treatment modalities, including surgery, interventional radiology techniques, and medical treatments, will probably lead to prolonged survival in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. According to our center's expanded criteria, recurrence rates and time to recurrence were similar to those shown with the Milan group. We showed that Milan criteria can be safely expanded with promising results even in patients beyond Milan criteria. PMID: 32279656 [PubMed - in process]
