Unlike the traditional associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy, it is still controversial whether patients with portal vein thrombosis can receive benefits from liver partition. PATIENT CONCERNS Right upper abdominal distension for 2 months. DIAGNOSIS Hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein invasion INTERVENTION Radiofrequency-assisted liver partition with portal vein ligation (RALPP)OUTCOMES:
