摘要
Background:Liver resection and local ablation are the only curative treatment for non-cirrhotic hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Few data exist concerning the prognosis of patients resected for non-cirrhotic HCC.The objectives of this study were to determine the prognostic factors of recurrence-free survival(RFS)and overall survival(OS)and to develop a prognostication algorithm for non-cirrhotic HCC.Methods:French multicenter retrospective study including HCC patients with non-cirrhotic liver without underlying viral hepatitis:F0,F1 or F2 fibrosis.Results:A total of 467 patients were included in 11 centers from 2010 to 2018.Non-cirrhotic liver had a fibrosis score of F0(n=237,50.7%),F1(n=127,27.2%)or F2(n=103,22.1%).OS and RFS at 5 years were 59.2%and 34.5%,respectively.In multivariate analysis,microvascular invasion and HCC differentiation were prognostic factors of OS and RFS and the number and size were prognostic factors of RFS(P<0.005).Stratification based on RFS provided an algorithm based on size(P=0.013)and number(P<0.001):2 HCC with the largest nodule≤10 cm(n=271,Group 1);2 HCC with a nodule>10 cm(n=176,Group 2);>2 HCC regardless of size Conclusions:We developed a prognostication algorithm based on the number(≤or>2)and size(≤or>10 cm),which could be used as a treatment decision support concerning the need for perioperative therapy.In case of bifocal HCC,surgery should not be a contraindication.
