The 6th edition TNM staging (TNM-6) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been recommended. However, its superiority, in contrast to the previous 5th edition (TNM-5), has not been fully recognized. Besides, tumor differentiation was not included. The current study was designed to compare the value of these two staging systems and, more importantly, to elucidate whether Edmondson-Steiner grading, a well-acknowledged histological classification, is helpful in further discriminating different prognosis of HCC.
