Figure 4 Tumor recurrence curves (Kaplan-Meier method) of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma in Milan criteria who underwent surgical resection and radiofrequency ablation after propensity score matching. Recurrence-free survival curves were constructed using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. After propensity score matching, recurrence remained significantly different. PSM: Propensity score matching; DFS: Disease-free survival; RES: Resection; RFA: Radiofrequency ablation.
