Researchers in southwestern China developed a predictive tool called a nomogram to help identify patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who are at risk of experiencing moderate-to-severe complications after hepatectomy surgery. The nomogram uses six variables, including diabetes and the extent of liver resection, to estimate the risk of postoperative complications in HCC patients. This tool assists surgeons in making informed treatment decisions and improving patient outcomes, particularly in those with HBV-related HCC.
