Description
Summary:Backgrounds and Objective There is controversy regarding liver function of non‐B, non‐C hepatocellular carcinoma (NBNC‐HCC) patients, the biological behavior of their tumors, and the outcome after surgical treatment. The aims of the present study were to compare clinicopathologic data and long‐term clinical outcomes between NBNC‐HCC patients and hepatitis B virus HCC (HBV‐HCC) patients from non‐cirrhotic liver after curative hepatectomy. Methods Data for HBV‐HCC patients (n = 360) and NBNC‐HCC patients (n = 103) were retrospectively reviewed. Results The median age of patients in the NBNC group was significantly higher than that of the HBV group (63 years vs. 53 years, P
