Study Population

From January 2005 to August 2015, all patients complied with the criteria mentioned above who received surgical treatment or non-surgical treatment at the investigator's center were included in this study.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Be diagnosed as hepatocellular carcinoma pathologically; had a tumor rupture confirmed by Intraperitoneal exploration or clinical signs and symptoms in combination with imaging examination.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Be diagnosed as not hepatocellular carcinoma pathologically;had repeated transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE) or a long history (more than 1 year) of cancer treatment; loss of follow up or without complete data.

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Surgical treatment
Patients who received liver resection or palliative surgery, such as microwave coagulation therapy, hepatic artery ligation, or suturing ligation.
Liver resection was comprised of single or multiple liver resections aiming to excise all macroscopic tumors.
Non-surgical treatment
Patients who received transcatheter arterial embolization (or transcatheter arterial chemoembolization) or conservative treatment
Transcatheter arterial embolization or transcatheter arterial chemoembolization can localize the bleeding point and provide interventional embolization.
