Long-term Outcomes of Hepatic Resection Combined With Intraoperative AblationVersusHepatic Resection Alone for Multinodular Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Insights from a Single-center Study

The efficacy of combining hepatic resection (HR) with ablation therapy in treating multinodular hepatocellular carcinoma (mHCC) remains uncertain. This study aimed to compare the long-term survival outcomes of patients with mHCC undergoing HR combined with intraoperative ablation (HRA) versus those undergoing HR alone.
