ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how tumor size and a specific condition called microvascular invasion affect the survival and recurrence of patients with operable solitary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which is a type of liver cancer. Researchers want to find out if having a larger tumor (over 6.5 cm) has a bigger impact on a patient's outcome than the presence of microvascular invasion, where cancer cells invade small blood vessels. They will look back at medical records from January 2019 to December 2022 to analyze the results of patients who had surgery for this type of cancer.

To participate in this trial, patients must have operable solitary HCC and not have any other severe conditions affecting their cancer classification. The researchers will group participants based on their tumor size and whether they have microvascular invasion, then evaluate how these factors influence their chances of survival and cancer recurrence. Overall, this study aims to provide clearer insights into how these characteristics affect patient outcomes after surgery, which could help guide treatment decisions in the future.
