13 RCT RFA vs Resection: Overall Survival RFA = 81 (residual tumor n=8) Resection = 83 (residual tumor n=1) All were Child Class A or B HCC <2 tumors < 4 cm diameter p=0.34 Feng J Hepatol 2012

19 Limitations of Liver Transplantation Shortage of liver grafts Stringent patient selection criteria, HCC <2cm constitutes a low MELD score / least priority to receive a graft before the disease progresses Stage II HCC and Child Class A cirrhosis Very low survival benefit 6 mos waiting for exception or LDLT 10% mortality

40 Conclusions No definitive answer for best treatment of early HCC Multidisciplinary approach may be best Surgical resection may be 1 st option for compensated cirrhotics without PHTN / synthetic dysfunction Ablation effective for small tumors or centrally located Transplant associated with best disease free survival but has several limitations
