Abstract:
:We resected 158 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), including 20 (12.6%) cases of large HCC. These 20 cases were divided into group 1 (curative resection, n = 9) and group 2 (noncurative resection, n = 11). The clinicopathologic features and long-term survival of the cases were evaluated. In groups 1 and 2, portal vein invasion (Vp+) was noted in 44.4% and 63.3%, intrahepatic metastasis (IM+) in 77.8% and 100%, absence of a fibrous capsule (Fc-) in 55.6% and 63.6%, and stage III or IV in 77.8% and 100%, respectively. The DNA ploidy pattern was aneuploid in 44.4% of group 1 and 100% of group 2. In group 1, the 1-, 3-, and 5-year cumulative survival rates were 75%, 62.5%, and 62.5%, respectively (the longest survivor is alive after 11 years 1 month). Five cases survived more than 3 years in group 1, and all were Vp(-) and nonaneuploid. On the other hand, in group 2, the 1-year survival rate was only 33.3%; none survived more than 2 years. These results suggest that even patients with large HCC have a favorable long-term prognosis if their clinicopathologic factors are Vp(-) and nonaneuploid, and if curative resection can be performed.
