Recent advances in surgical management strategies for hepatocellular carcinoma

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a significant global health challenge, requiring innovative methods to improve patient survival. Due to different disease backgrounds, different HCC management guidelines have been developed, especially in the field of surgical treatment, with the aim of reducing the risk of incidence and enhancing the therapeutic effect. Focusing on the progress and challenges in the development of surgical management strategies for HCC in recent years, this article systematically elaborates on the research and clinical application of precision surgical treatment, including improvement of the surgical evaluation system, breakthroughs in surgical techniques, and updates in perioperative treatment concepts. In addition, clinical research on surgical treatment for HCC has received unprecedented attention. The conclusions of innovative clinical trials in surgery will provide important guidance for the development of practice guidelines and the selection of appropriate treatment strategies for HCC patients.
