TL;DR: The outcome of nonsurgical HCC is not homogeneously grim and may be predicted by assessing the presence of symptoms and of an invasive tumoral pattern and Therapeutic trials should be designed and evaluated considering these characteristics.

Nonparametric Estimation from Incomplete Observations
Edward L. Kaplan,Paul Meier +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the product-limit (PL) estimator was proposed to estimate the proportion of items in the population whose lifetimes would exceed t (in the absence of such losses), without making any assumption about the form of the function P(t).

Liver resection versus transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhotic patients.
TL;DR: The best indication for transplantation seems to be patients with small and uninodular or binodular tumors; until now, these patients were considered to be the best candidates for resection.
Journal Article
Hepatic resection for hepatocellular carcinoma.
TL;DR: Between July 1973 and September 1988, 119 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma underwent hepatic resection at Keio University Hospital, Tokyo, with a great reduction of the incidence of postoperative death.

TL;DR: It is shown that PEI was a safe, reproducible, easy‐to‐do, and low‐cost therapeutic technique and in terms of survival, these PEI results were better than the published results of no treatment and equivalent to those of surgery.
