    ResumenAntecedentesLa estadificaci贸n en el carcinoma hepatocelular (CHC) otorga pron贸stico y orientaci贸n terap茅utica. La resecci贸n y el trasplante hep谩tico son opciones curativas y las terapias de ablaci贸n se aplican a pacientes que no reciben tratamiento curativo. La sobrevida tras la resecci贸n hep谩tica o terapias de ablaci贸n es variada.ObjetivoDescribir la presentaci贸n, la estadificaci贸n, el manejo y la evoluci贸n de los pacientes con CHC en nuestro centro.Pacientes y m茅todosCuarenta y dos pacientes fueron seguidos prospectivamente durante 7 a帽os. La sobrevida se calcul贸 mediante Kaplan-Meier y log-rank entre los sistemas de estadificaci贸n (Okuda, BCLC y CLIP) y tipos de tratamiento (resecci贸n hep谩tica, ablaci贸n por radiofrecuencia y ning煤n tratamiento quir煤rgico).ResultadosLa edad media 卤 desviaci贸n est谩ndar de los pacientes fue 68,9 卤 9,5 a帽os; el 57% fueron mujeres y el 54% cirr贸ticos. El 31% ten铆a infecci贸n por VHC. El tama帽o medio del tumor fue 6.48 卤 2.52cm. Los estadios CLIP 0, Okuda I y BCLC A tuvieron mejor sobrevida que otros estadios (p<0.05). La resecci贸n tuvo mejor sobrevida (mediana: 32 meses y sobrevida a 1, 3 y 5 a帽os del 83, el 39 y 19.7%) que ablaci贸n por radiofrecuencia (25 meses, y el 90 y el 17.2% a 1 y 3 a帽os) y que ning煤n tratamiento quir煤rgico (1 a帽o<5%) (p<0.05).Conclusi贸nLos pacientes con CHC en nuestro centro al igual que otra poblaci贸n en M茅xico son diagnosticados tard铆amente. El pron贸stico usando CLIP y BCLC es similar a la literatura. Los mejores resultados se observaron en estadios tempranos y los que tuvieron resecci贸n quir煤rgica del CHC.AbstractBackgroundHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) staging provides a basis for calculating disease prognosis and therapeutic guidance. Liver resection and transplantation are curative options, and ablation therapies are applied to patients that are not candidates for curative treatment. Survival after liver resection or ablation therapies varies.AimsTo describe the presentation, staging, management, and outcome in patients with HCC in our center.Patients and methodsForty-two patients had a 7-year prospective follow-up. Survival was calculated with the Kaplan-Meier analysis and the log-rank test was used for its comparison between the staging systems (Okuda, BCLC, and CLIP) and types of treatment (liver resection, radiofrequency ablation, and no surgical treatment).ResultsThe mean age of the patients was 68.9 卤 9.5 years; 57% were women. A total of 54% of the patients presented with cirrhosis and 31% were infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). The mean tumor size was 6.48 卤 2.52cm. The CLIP 0, Okuda I, and BCLC A stages had better survival rates than the other stages (P<0.05). Survival with resection was superior (median of 32 months and survival at 1, 3, and 5 years of 83, 39, and 19.7%, respectively) to that of both radiofrequency ablation (median of 25 months and survival at 1 and 3 years of 90 and 17.2%, respectively) and no surgical treatment (1 year < 5%) (P<0.05).ConclusionThe patients at our center were diagnosed at late stages of HCC, as is the case in other Mexican populations. Outcome in relation to CLIP and BCLC was similar to the prognoses reported in the literature. The best results were observed in the patients with early stage disease and those that underwent HCC resection surgery
