Comparison of Seven Staging Systems in Cirrhotic Patients With Hepatocellular Carcinoma in a Cohort of Patients Who Underwent Radiofrequency Ablation With Complete Response

Abstract

The BCLC staging system shows a superior discriminatory power in our cohort of HCC patients who underwent RFA; moreover, it can give important prognostic information after complete response to treatment. Our study confirms the validity of the BCLC staging system in patients with HCC in cirrhosis.
