摘要

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary malignancy of the liver and is the fifth most common cancer in men and the seventh most common cancer in women worldwide [1]. Men are more commonly affected than women. The male-to-female ratio has been reported to vary regionally from 2:1 to 4:1 [2], with an overall male-to-female ratio of 2.4:1. In the United States, the incidence rates of liver cancer per 100,000 person-years are 2.0 for women and 3.7 for men, with a male-to-female ratio of 2.83:1.
