ALB and hepatocellular carcinoma: The albumin‐bilirubin (ALBI) grade was developed to predict the prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which can stratify the prognosis even in HCC patients with Child‐Pugh A. We evaluated the prognostic efficacy of the ALBI grade and Child‐Pugh classification in HCC patients with Child‐Pugh A stratified by the presence or absence of advanced fibrosis or a preoperative biomarker for advanced fibrosis.
