Primary Endpoint
the prognostic impact of anatomical resection by means of intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) guided vessel compression versus nonanatomical resection in terms of disease free and overall survival

Study Overview

Brief Summary

Prognostic impact of AR vs NAR

Detailed Description

Whether anatomical is better than non anatomical resection for HCC is still debated. This prospective randomized study aimed to address which approach is better in terms of patients prognosis.
