  • RFA = radiofrequency ablation; TACE = transcatheter arterial chemoembolization; LITT = laser-induced thermotherapy; UICC = International Union Against Cancer; PR+ = progesterone receptor status positive; ER+ = estrogen receptor status positive; Her-2/neu+ = Her-2/neu status positive.

  • Given are total numbers (with percentages in parentheses) or median (with IQRs in parentheses).
