Vascular Invasion and Histopathologic Grading Determine Outcome After Liver Transplantation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Cirrhosis
Open accessAbstract
Selection of patients suffering from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in cirrhosis for liver transplantation follows limits of number and diameter of tumor nodules. It has not been investigated whether there is a correlation of these parameters with vascular invasion. From 1989 to 2000, 1,188 liver transplantations were performed in 1,087 patients, including 120 patients (11%) with an HCC in cirrhosis. Selection criteria were a maximal diameter of up to 5 cm if the tumor appeared to be uninodular or of up to 3 cm in the case of 2 or 3 nodules. The postoperative mortality rate was 1.7%. One–, 5–, and 10–year survival was 90%, 71%, and 60%, respectively. In 940 transplantation patients without an HCC, these rates were 93%, 87%, and 83% (P < .0001). Vascular invasion and histopathologic grading were identified as prognostic parameters by multivariate analysis. In a logistic regression analysis, histopathologic grading and maximal diameter showed a significant correlation with a vascular invasion. Analyzing tumors larger than 5 cm, i.e., tumors not fulfilling the selection criteria as a result of diagnostic inaccuracy or progression thereafter, the rates of vascular invasion were significantly (P < .01) lower in patients suffering from well–differentiated tumors (25%) when compared with moderately and poorly differentiated tumors (100%). Liver transplantation is a safe and effective long–term treatment for small HCC in cirrhosis. Tumor diameter and number of nodules in correlation with the histopathologic grading were predictive of a vascular invasion only in HCC larger than 5 cm.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
