This study aims to develop and validate a predictive nomogram for 10-year actual survivors with HCC.
Materials And Methods: From 2004 to 2009, 753 patients with curative hepatectomy for HCC (development set, n = 325; validation set, n = 428) were included.
Analysis for actual mid-term (≥5 years) and long-term (≥10 years) survivors with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) following curative hepatectomy are rarely reported in the literature.This retrospective study aims to study the mid- and long-term survival outcome and associated prognostic factors following curative hepatectomy for HCC in a tertiary referral center.The clinical data of 325 patients who underwent curative hepatectomy for HCC were reviewed.
