摘要
The present letter to the editor is in response to the research "Outcomes of curative liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with cirrhosis" by Elshaarawy et al in World J Gastroenterol 2021; 13(5): 424-439. The preoperative assessment of the liver reserve function in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with cirrhosis is crucial, and there is no universal consensus on how to assess it. Based on a retrospective study, Elshaarawy et al investigated the impact of various classical clinical indicators on liver failure and the prognosis after hepatectomy in HCC patients with cirrhosis. We recommend that we should strive to explore new appraisal indicators, such as the indocyanine green retention rate at 15 min.
