Key clinical point: Preoperative model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score, post hepatectomy liver failure score (PHLF), and HCC recurrence were independent predictors of survival for HCC patients with cirrhosis who underwent curative liver resection.

Major finding: The preoperative MELD score and grades A, B, or C of the post hepatectomy liver failure score (PHLF) were significant independent predictors for survival in HCC patients with cirrhosis who underwent curative liver resection, with hazard ratios of 1.37 (MELD), 2.33 (grade A), 3.15 (grade B), 373.41 (grade C). HCC recurrence also was a significant independent predictor of survival (HA 11.67).

Study details: The data come from a review of 120 adults with HCC with cirrhosis who underwent curative resection.

Disclosures: The study received no outside funding. The researchers had no financial conflicts to disclose.
