Article Synopsis
- Traditional clinical variables are not enough to predict recurrence in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) undergoing surgery due to tumor heterogeneity, but the novel vascular pattern known as vessels encapsulating tumor clusters (VETC) can indicate biological aggressiveness.
- The study aimed to create a model using VETC and microvascular invasion (MVI) to provide personalized estimates of recurrence-free survival (RFS) for HCC patients based on data from 498 individuals from multiple centers in China.
- Key findings showed that VETC, MVI, tumor number, and maximum tumor size were independent predictors of RFS, and a nomogram and risk score were developed to help estimate RFS more accurately compared to existing progn
The prognosis of patients with post-operative recurrent intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is at great variance. We aimed to propose a novel efficient prognostic nomogram in facilitating the risk stratification for post-operative recurrent ICC patients. From 2000 to 2016, a total of 237 post-operative recurrent ICC patients were enrolled in this study, and randomly divided into training ( = 178) and validation cohorts ( = 59) at a ratio of 3:1.
