HCC - Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to investigate the recurrence patterns and cost-effectiveness of robotic-assisted, laparoscopic, and open liver resections in patients with early-stage (BCLC 0/A) hepatocellular carcinoma. By analyzing data from 3000 patients across 27 centers, the research evaluates recurrence-free survival, overall survival, and long-term economic impacts using metrics such as quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs). Findings will provide insights into optimal surgical approaches to improve patient outcomes and healthcare resource utilization.
Interventions
PROCEDURELiver Surgery
Minimally Invasive Liver Resection In both LLR and RALR, standardized preoperative planning with 3D imaging was utilized to assess tumor location, size, and proximity to vascular structures, enabling precise port placement. Typically, four to five trocar ports were inserted based on the tumor's location, with adjustments as needed
