Hepatocellular Carcinoma
5th most common cancer in the world > 500,000 new cases per year 600,000 people die globally due to
HCC each year

Curative treatment for HCC
Surgical resection / transplantation Loco-regional ablation
Radiofrequency ablation Microwave ablation

Surgical resection
Poor survival rate despite curative resection 5-year survivals of 39% - 50%
High recurrence rate 1,3,5 years recurrence rate : 30.1%,
62.3%, 79% respectively

gallbladder or with perforation of visceral peritoneum N-staging

13 Patients underwent adjuvant TACE after liver resection of curative intent
Criteria of adjuvant TACE : Large tumor (>5 cm) Satellite nodules Vascular invasion Close surgical margin
![Page 31: The role of adjuvant TACE after curative liver resection for HCC Anthony Fong Prince of Wales Hospital](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649dc55503460f94ab91d5/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Our experience
Follow up peroid
3-43 mths (median 15mths)
Tumor Size 1.5 – 14cm (Median 5.1cm)
Vascular invasion
61.5%
Surgical margin 0 - 5.8cm (Median 1cm)
Presence of multiple tumors
46%

Our experience
2 Patients had recurrence (15%) Both from lung metastasis Disease free survival : 3 mths / 15
mths 1 mortality from recurrence (Overall
survival 15mths)

Conclusion
Role of adjuvant TACE after curative liver resection is still controversial
Some trials showed promising results in patients with advanced disease
TACE is well tolerated in most studies Need further large scale study for
evaluation
