ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES:
Improving the prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) undergoing hepatectomy is critical. This article aims to investigate the risk factors affecting the prognosis of HCC patients with Child-Pugh A (CPA) liver function after hepatectomy and to compare the prognosis of patients with anatomical resection (AR) and nonanatomical resection (NAR).METHODS:
In total, 186 patients diagnosed with HCC between 2013 and 2019 were retrospectively enrolled. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using a Cox proportional hazard regression model to explore the factors related to prognosis. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed by log-rank tests and are shown by Kaplan-Meier curves. Chi-square tests and Mann-Whitney U tests were used to compare the difference in clinical characteristics between AR and NAR patients.RESULTS:
Among the 186 enrolled patients, only 73 were followed over 60 months. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 74.5%, 46.7% and 26.0%, respectively. Multivariate analyses demonstrated that portal vein invasion (PVI) and tumor size were independent risk factors for OS and PFS. Preoperative hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and a-fetoprotein (AFP) levels were identified as independent risk factors only for PFS. In univariate analysis, the NAR group had a better OS rate than the AR group (1-year 80.4% vs. 63.6%, 3-year 55.9% vs. 30.3%, 5-year 34.8% vs. 11.1%), but this was not confirmed by multivariate analysis.CONCLUSIONS:
PVI and tumor size > 5 cm are risk factors for the prognosis of CPA HCC patients after hepatectomy, but the surgical type is not.Palavras-chave
