Relationship between spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma (SRHCC) and long-term survival after anatomic liver resection.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma (SRHCC) is a critical complication, ranking as the third leading cause of death among HCC patients, following tumor progression and liver failure. However, the long-term survival outcomes of various interventions for SRHCC remain controversial and no authoritative standard has been established yet, highlighting the need to identify optimal treatment strategies to improve prognosis. The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of SRHCC on long-term outcomes following liver resection and to assess whether anatomic liver resection improves prognosis in these patients.

Methods

This single-center, retrospective study included 2,468 HCC patients who underwent liver resection between 2009 and 2011. Patients were
