Preoperative gadoxetic acid–enhanced MRI for predicting microvascular invasion in patients with single hepatocellular carcinoma

TLDR
A combination of two or more of the following; arterial per itumoral enhancement, non-smooth tumor margin, and peritumoral hypointensity on hepatobiliary phase, can be used as a preoperative imaging biomarker for predicting MVI, with specificity >90%, and is associated with early recurrence after surgery of single HCC.

Prognostic and Therapeutic Implications of Microvascular Invasion in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

TL;DR: The pathogenesis and clinical relevance of MVI, which correlates with adverse biological features, including high grade, large tumor size, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition, are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Radiomics Nomogram for Preoperative Prediction of Microvascular Invasion in Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

TL;DR: A radiomics nomogram incorporating clinicoradiological risk factors and radiomic features derived from HBP images achieved satisfactory preoperative prediction of the individualized risk of MVI in patients with HCC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Microvascular Invasion Risk on Early Recurrence of Hepatocellular Carcinoma After Surgery and Radiofrequency Ablation.

TL;DR: The MVI prediction model predicted the risk of MVI in patients with a small HCC with high accuracy and patients with MVI who had undergone RFA were more vulnerable to recurrence than those who had underwent SR.
Journal ArticleDOI

A radiomics nomogram for preoperative prediction of microvascular invasion risk in hepatitis B virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma.

TL;DR: The radiomics nomogram, as a noninvasive preoperative prediction method, shows a favorable predictive accuracy for MVI status in patients with HBV-related HCC.

Risk factors contributing to early and late phase intrahepatic recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma after hepatectomy

TL;DR: Variables associated with metastatic recurrence were factors to early phase recurrence; whereas those related with elevated carcinogenesis contributed to late phase recurrences, thus providing an epidemiological evidence that different mechanisms, i.e. metastasis and de novo, are involved in intrahepaticRecurrence after hepatectomy for HCC.

Tumor size predicts vascular invasion and histologic grade

TL;DR: The high incidence of occult vascular invasion and advanced histologic grade in HCC tumors larger than 5 cm, as well as biologic predictors of poor prognosis, should be considered before criteria for transplantation are expanded to include these patients.

CT and MR Imaging Diagnosis and Staging of Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Part II. Extracellular Agents, Hepatobiliary Agents, and Ancillary Imaging Features

TL;DR: The second article of this two-part review discusses basic concepts of diagnosis and staging, reviews the diagnostic performance of CT and MR Imaging with extracellular contrast agents and of MR imaging with hepatobiliary contrast agents, and examines in depth the major and ancillary imaging features used in the diagnosis and characterization of HCC.

Recurrence after liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma: risk factors, treatment, and outcomes.

TL;DR: Despite recurrences in >50% of patients, long-term survival can be achieved after resection of HCC, and intermediate and poor tumor differentiation and tumor size and number were significant predictors of disease-free survival.
