The purpose of this research was to compare the effects of radiofrequency ablation on early hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) to those of surgical liver resection in terms of the following outcomes: Intraoperative blood loss as well as transfusion, operation time, respectability time, hospital stay, intensive care unit stay, and postoperative morbidity. Forty individuals diagnosed with a hepatocellular carcinoma were compared on a number of different metrics, including demographic and biochemical make-up, surgical as well as post-operative details, complications, and cost. When compared to the surgical resection group, the radiofrequency ablation group experienced significantly shorter operation, resection, blood loss, transfusion, hospital, and intensive care unit (ICU) stays. In comparison to the surgical resection group, the RFA group had fewer cases of postoperative bleeding, bile leak, and chest infection. We conclude that radiofrequency ablation is preferable to hepatic resection because it reduces the surgery duration, the need for blood transfusions, the length of time spent in the hospital, as well as the number and severity of postoperative problems.
