China Liver Cancer Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (2024 Edition)

Résumé fourni par la source

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which accounts for approximately 75–85% of primary liver cancers, ranks 4th in newly diagnosed cases among various types of cancer in China, and is the 2nd leading cause of cancer-related mortality, thereby posing a significant threat to the life and health of the Chinese population. Since the publication of the “Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Primary Liver Cancer in China” in June 2017, which were updated by the China’s National Health Commission in December 2019 and December 2021, additional high-quality evidence from researchers worldwide regarding the diagnosis, staging, and treatment of HCC has emerged, necessitating another update to the guidelines. The new edition (2024 Edition) was written by more than 120 multidisciplinary experts in the field of HCC in China, which not only reflects the real-world situation in China but also may reshape the nationwide diagnosis and treatment of HCC. The new guideline aims to encourage the implementation of evidence-based practice and improve the national average 5-year survival rate for patients with HCC, as proposed in the “Healthy China 2030: A Vision for Health Care.”
