Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the caudate lobe is technically challenging for both radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and transarterial chemoembolization (TACE). However, each of these modalities has its strengths. This retrospective study compares the effectiveness of RFA and TACE in patients with caudate HCC within the Milan criteria.
