HCC Staging Modified by Tumor Micronecrosis

Completed
Conditions
Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Interventions
Behavioral: tumor micronecrosis
Registration Number
NCT05739110
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

Tumor micronecrosis is a pathological feature that reflects malignant biological behavior in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic significance of tumor micronecrosis based on the current BCLC and TNM staging systems, and futher improve the performance of the staging models by establishing modified new staging models including tumor micronecrosis.
