(A) Overall disease-free survival of resected patients with fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma according to vascular invasion. Vascular invasion, either macro- or microscopic, was associated with an increased risk of tumor recurrence (Cox regression, p<0.01). (B) The overall survival of patients with fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma according to the presence of vascular invasion. On the one hand, the presence of macrovascular invasion had a significant impact on survival; on the other hand, although the microvascular invasion data may suggest a trend, the small number of cases (3) did not allow for a significant discrimination with cases without any vascular invasion.
