The influencing factors for tumor thrombus in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma

Background: Microvascular invasion (MVI) is considered to be an important factor in the early invasion and metastasis of liver cancer, and the survival rate of patients with MVI is much lower than that of patients without MVI. Therefore, it is crucial to accurately predict the independent predictors of tumor thrombus formation. This study aimed to assess the risk factors for tumor thrombus grades in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
