Western and Eastern perspectives on therapeutic guidelines for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have many commonalities but may also differ in certain aspects, as described in this article. In view of the limited therapeutic options for advanced HCC, evidence-based therapies are few, and thus there is a dependence on consensus-based guidelines. This article focuses on the Italian Association for the Study of the Liver guidelines and the Japanese approaches to therapy, while drawing attention to certain controversies from other academic bodies where applicable and appropriate.
本文所述,西方和东方对于肝细胞癌(HCC)治疗指南的观点有许多共性,但在某些方面也可能存在差异。鉴于晚期HCC的治疗选择有限,基于证据的疗法较少,因此依赖基于共识的指南。本文重点关注意大利肝脏研究协会的指南和日本的治疗方法,同时在适用和适当的情况下,提请注意其他学术机构的某些争议。
