Prognostic Factors After Hepatic Resection for Hepatocellular Carcinoma With Hepatitis C Viral Infection: Univariate and Multivariate Analysis

We found the postresection survival of patients with HCV-related HCC should be stratified by the high value of AFP and the presence of vascular invasion. AFP may be the most powerful predictor of the long-term prognosis and recurrence in such patients.
