01-A: Resection vs. Ablation in Very Early HCC

Authors:

Sasan Roayaie, MD (USA)

During this debate, Dr. Roayaie will review the relevant literature on the results obtained from ablation as well as resection of HCC smaller than 2 cm. He will also review the randomised controlled trial that compare resection and ablation with a particular emphasis on results for smaller tumours. At the conclusion of the session, participants will hopefully be able to reach their own conclusions regarding the relative utility of ablation versus resection in patients with small HCC.
