Current developmental status of non-surgical treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma / 临床肝胆病杂志

ABSTRACT

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors with high mortality in clinical practice. With the development of imaging and interventional techniques, transcatheter arterial chemoembolization and local ablation are more and more widely used for treatment and can even achieve a similar effect as surgery in the treatment of some types of early-stage HCC. In addition, precision medicine and biomedicine have also developed vigorously; radiochemotherapy is more accurate and effective in the treatment of HCC, and molecular targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and gene therapy have become the directions for breakthrough in the future. This article reviews the latest advances in the non-surgical treatment of HCC.
