Preoperative predictors of early recurrence after resection for hepatocellular carcinoma
2022
Overview
To assess preoperative image tumor characteristics and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels to predict early recurrence after liver resection (LR) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
This retrospective study's enrolled patients underwent LR for newly diagnosed HCC between 2011 and 2018. Multivariate logistic regression analyses using the Akaike information criterion were adopted to construct a nomogram to predict early recurrence (i.e. recurrence within 1 year). The performance of this nomogram was evaluated using calibration plots with bootstrapping.
Early recurrence was identified in 99 patients (11.2%). Four predictive factors, namely an AFP level of >400 ng/mL; image-diagnosed tumor characteristics, including a tumor size of > 5 cm; vascular invasion; and multiple tumors were adopted in the final model of the early recurrence nomogram, with a concordance index of 0.67. The calibration plots showed good agreement between the nomogram predictions and the actual observations of early recurrence.
We have developed a simple nomogram with preoperative image tumor characteristics and AFP levels to predict the early recurrence of HCC after LR.
1.Early recurrence after liver resection (LR) for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) carries a poor prognosis.2.We have developed a simple nomogram with preoperative image tumor characteristics and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels to predict the early recurrence of HCC after LR.
