Outcome of TACE treatment in HIV infected patients with hepatocellular carcinoma

Abstract The surgical treatment and transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) rate of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients is relatively low in West China. For various reasons, most patients do not receive timely surgical treatment. Upon transfer...
