Abstract

The survival outcomes of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) who received transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) before or after intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). For HCC patients with PVTT, IMRT followed by TACE yielded similar survival outcomes and liver function when compared to TACE followed by IMRT
