The rise in incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) the United States has been well documented. purpose this analysis was to examine temporal trends HCC incidence, mortality, and survival within U.S. population. Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results data were used incidence-based (IB) mortality from 1973 2011. Secular age-adjusted IB by sex cancer stage characterized using Joinpoint Regression program. In 1973, 1.51 cases per 100,000, whereas 2011, 6.20 100,000. Although continues...
