Abstract

Objective To investigate the three-year follow-up outcomes of hepatocellular carcinoma patients undergoing liver resection (LR) versus liver transplantation (LT). Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for 171 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent surgical treatment in Beijing YouAn Hospital, Capital Medical University, from March 2009 to March 2014, and according to the treatment method, they were divided into LR group(n=83) and LT group(n=88). Related clinical data were compared between the two groups. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups; the Kaplan-Meier survival curve and the log-rank test were used for comparison of disease-free survival and overall survival between two groups, and the Cox proportional hazards model was used for the univariate and multivariate analyses of disease-free survival and overall survival. Results Compared with the LR group, the LT group had a significantly higher proportion of patients with single tumor [45.78% (38/83) vs 85.23% (75/88), χ²=29.649, P < 0.001], tumor size < 3 cm [15.66% (13/83) vs 67.05% (59/88), χ²=46.383, P < 0.001], or high Child-Pugh class [9.64% (8/83) vs 26.14% (23/88), χ²=7.833, P=0.005] and a significantly lower recurrence rate of tumor [48.19%(40/83) vs 32.95%(29/88), χ²=4.121, P=0.042]. There was a significant difference in disease-free survival rate between the LR group and the LT group (46.02% vs 80.71%, P=0.006); the LT group had a higher overall survival rate than the LR group (86.99% vs 76.44%, P=0.219). Both univariate and multivariate analyses showed that treatment method was an independent risk factor for disease-free survival (risk ratio [RR] =3.383, 95% confidence interval[CI]: 1.334-8.579;RR=0.239, 95%CI:0.093-0.612, both P < 0.05), but the prediction of overall survival by treatment method did not reach statistical significance(P=0.232). Conclusion LT is recommended for patients with early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma and can achieve a satisfactory three-year disease-free survival rate.
