Actual long-term survival in hepatocellular carcinoma patients with microvascular invasion: a multicenter study from China.

Anatomical hepatectomy, controlling intraoperative blood loss, a wide resection margin, and postoperative adjuvant TACE should be considered for patients to achieve better long-term survival outcomes.
