This publication retrospectively analyzes the clinicopathological factors and treatments affecting overall survival in FLC.

Of those patients, resection was performed on 254 (51.2%), liver-directed therapy on 13 (2.6%), and liver transplantation on 15 (3.0%) patients. Median overall survival times by disease stage were 142.1, 87.2, 32.3, and 14.1 months for stages 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively.
