A previous prospective study from a single center in Korea found that only 40&#37; of the 160 consecutive HCC patients were treated according to the BCLC recommendations <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib13">13</a>&#46; Similarly&#44; an Italian multicenter survey &#40;EpaHCC group&#41; of 536 patients diagnosed between 2008 and 2011 found that adherence to BCLC recommendations was not uniform and that 40&#37; of BCLC stage A patients did not receive curative therapies <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib14">14</a>&#46;</p><p id="para210" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">For BCLC stage 0&#47;A patients&#44; who are candidates for curative therapies&#44; adherence to BCLC recommendations was associated with a better survival rate&#46; However&#44; only 45&#37; of these patients received the prescribed therapy&#44; which is consistent with the results in a previous report <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib15">15</a>&#46; Liver resection and percutaneous ablation were primarily limited by tumor location&#44; whereas the long wait time hindered cadaveric-donor liver transplantation&#46; Donor shortage is a significant problem in Brazil&#44; as the number of cadaveric donors is &#8764;8&#46;4 per million people &#40;pmp&#41;&#46; Although the yearly donation rate has doubled over the past decade&#44; it is still lower than that in Europe &#40;15 pmp&#41; and the United States &#40;26 pmp&#41; <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib16">16</a>&#46; As there will always be a shortage of available donors&#44; new strategies to increase the likelihood of transplantation should be discussed and developed&#44; particularly for patients with early-stage HCC&#44; patients with decompensated liver function&#44; and&#47;or those who are receiving locoregional therapies for local tumor control&#46;</p><p id="para220" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">For patients with intermediate-stage HCC&#44; TACE is considered the standard treatment <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib17">17</a>&#46; The highest adherence to BCLC recommendations was in patients of this subgroup&#46; The current definition of intermediate-stage HCC includes a wide range of patients with heterogeneous tumor burden and liver function <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib17">17</a>&#44;<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib18">18</a>&#44;

In practice&#44; TACE is commonly prescribed for all patients in this group due to the possibility of downstaging to meet the Milan criteria and for subsequent placement on the liver transplant list&#46; However&#44; our results indicate that adherence to BCLC recommendations does not influence OS&#44; which is in contrast to the results of two previous studies that found better survival of patients with intermediate-stage HCC who underwent radical therapies&#44;

prevents the application of potentially curative therapies&#44; patients on the transplant wait list should be screened for HCC to detect tumors that exceed conventional criteria and to help define priority policies for transplantation <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib7">7</a>&#46; In BCLC D patients&#44; non-adherence to BCLC recommendations was limited to those who could benefit from liver transplantation&#46; In this study&#44; nine patients were treated&#44; but only two underwent liver transplantation&#46;</p><p id="para250" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">There were a few limitations of the present study&#46; First&#44; the study only included patients who were referred to one tertiary hospital&#44; and the findings may thus not be generalizable to other centers&#46; Second&#44; this study was retrospective in nature&#44; and this type of study design may be subject to patient selection bias&#46; For example&#44; patients with a worse profile may have been unable to receive treatment according to the BCLC recommendations&#44; which may have resulted in a worse prognosis&#46; The retrospective design of the study also does not allow for a comparison with alternative treatment algorithms&#46;</p><p id="para260" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The BCLC staging system is recognized as a prognostic tool and a method for treatment allocation&#46; However&#44; in clinical practice&#44; treatment availability is an important consideration during the selection of individual therapies&#44; which should be performed by a comprehensive multidisciplinary team&#46; Treatment strategies should focus on the improvement of the management of HCC patients&#46; This focus is particularly important in those with early-stage disease for whom adherence to BCLC recommendations is associated with improved survival&#46; Furthermore&#44; future efforts should be made to define second- and third-line therapies for HCC patients according to their response to the first-line treatment at each stage&#46;</p><p id="para270" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In summary&#44; the rate of adherence to BCLC recommendations is low&#44; even at a tertiary referral center for HCC therapy that has access to all treatment modalities&#46; Adherence to the recommended guidelines positively impacts survival&#44;
