During the past 6 years, 150 consecutive hepatic resections were performed for hepatocellular carcinoma on 129 male and 21 female patients. Their ages ranged from 17 years to 78 years, with an average of 57.0 years. All but two patients had an underlying parenchymal disease of the liver; 131 had liver cirrhosis, 16 chronic hepatitis, and one liver fibrosis. The operations performed were extended right lobectomy in 10 cases, right lobectomy in 13, left lobectomy in 5, left lateral segmentectomy in 11, other segmentectomies in 31, and partial wedge resection in 80 instances. The operative and in-hospital mortality rates were 6.0% and 12.0% respectively. In the 122 patients with curative resection, the 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates were 75.2%, 49.0% and 30.0% respectively. The 1- and 3-year survival rates were 14.3% and 7.1% in the 28 patients with palliative resection. The tumor size and Child's classification generally reflected the survival rate.
