The Cox risk regression model showed that MVI, Child–Pugh classification, alpha‐fetoprotein (AFP), hepatocirrhosis, tumor diameter, lymphocyte‐to‐monocyte ratio (LMR), and, Barcelona clinic liver cancer (BCLC) grade were independent determinants of overall survival (OS), and MVI, AFP, hepatocirrhosis, tumor diameter, and LMR were influencing determinants for disease‐free survival (DFS). Here, AFP is linked to neoplasm.
