TL;DR: The addition of the PIVKA-II test to routine AFP test maybe provide a more suitable biomarker approach to detect HCV-induced HCC in patients with HCV infection undergoing HCC surveillance.

TL;DR: Yutaka et al. as discussed by the authors developed a holistic risk score incorporating preoperative tumor, liver, nutritional, and inflammatory markers to predict overall survival after hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors investigated if postoperative morbidity impacts long-term survival and recurrence following hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

TL;DR: In this paper, Wang et al. characterized clinical features and long-term outcomes among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) versus older adults (OAs) who underwent HCC resection and found that young adults had higher recurrence following liver resection among patients with HCC, suggesting that enhanced surveillance for postoperative recurrence may be required among AYAs.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated risk factors of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) after partial hepatectomy (PH) and developed a model for predicting ICC risk.
