Globally, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most highly morbid, fatal, and malignant tumors, with a poor prognosis in advanced stage. In the past decade, new advances have been emerged in the field of HCC therapy, including surgery, ablation, transvascular intervention, external radiotherapy, and systemic therapy. Among them, systemic treatments, particularly targeted and immune checkpoint drugs have made outstanding progress, significantly improving the five-year survival rate of liver cancer patients. In addition, the management of liver cancer patients, especially the screening management and multidisciplinary collaborative diagnosis and treatment of high-risk populations, has significantly increased the early diagnosis rate and improved the overall treatment efficacy. Considering our country's condition and the development of existing treatment, the most effective strategy to reduce HCC mortality in the future is to accurately identify high-risk populations, increase the early diagnosis rate, and formulate personalized treatment strategies.
