Resumen:
After a median follow-up of 6 months, 60 deaths had occurred: 38 and 22 in SOR and RE groups respectively. Median survival was 6.7 months (95%CI 5.2-8.1 months) for the entire cohort, and 8.8 months (95%CI 1.8-15.8) in the RE group and 5.4 months (95%CI 2.7-8.1) in the SOR group (P = 0.047). The difference in survival was still statistically significant when 13 patients in the RE group who started SOR after a median time of 8 months were censored from the analysis.
CONCLUSIONS:
In a cohort of patients with HCC and PVI treatment with RE was associated with a more prolonged survival compared with SOR.
