Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The investigators established three prospective cohorts of patients with BCLC stage 0-A HCC, based on different surgical approaches (open, laparoscopic and robotic). After 5 years of follow-up, the investigators used propensity score matching (PSM) to reduce selection bias and then compared the long-term oncological outcomes of the three different surgical approaches, which might provide high-level evidence in non-randomized observational studies.

- In this study, the investigators included all HCC patients with BCLC stage 0-A (n=1669) who underwent hepatectomy over an 1 ½ year study period, and divided them into three study cohorts according to the operations they received. These were consecutive patients who met the inclusion criteria of the study. 71 HCC patients were included in robotic liver resection cohort.
