The outcomes of the two groups were compared and analyzed using propensity score matching (PSM) method.<h4>Results</h4>There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of sex, HBV/HCV positivity, AFP positivity (>100 ng/mL), tumor position, Child-Pugh score, or preoperative liver function tests (ALT, AST, TBIL, ALB, and PT) (p > 0.05).
