Management and outcomes among patients with sarcomatoid hepatocellular carcinoma: A population-based analysis.

Sarcomatoid HCC is a very rare variant of HCC, which was associated with larger tumor size and worse tumor grade on presentation. On propensity score matched analyses that controlled for known confounding factors, patients with sarcomatoid HCC had a worse stage-for-stage long-term survival compared with patients who had conventional HCC.
