“…In the patients treated twice consecutively (only 9.6% of the population), the ART score did not highlight a significant difference in survival between the two groups. As our TACE method was similar to that of the Viennese team, we carried out a retrospective analysis of ART scores before the second TACE in a total of 321 French patients with viral and/or alcoholic HCC enrolled in two cohorts in Marseilles and one in Nancy [53] . In order to create a population similar to that of Sieghart et al [30] , we selected patients who had undergone at least two successive conventional TACEs without any other treatments, excluding patients undergoing pretransplant TACE or presenting with severe cirrhosis (Child-Pugh ≥ 9).…”

Several hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) staging systems have been established, and a variety of countryspecific treatment strategies are also proposed. The barcelona -clinic liver cancer (BCLC) system is the most widely used in Europe. The Hong Kong liver Cancer is a new prognostic staging system; it might become the reference system in Asia. Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is the most widely used treatment for HCC worldwide; but it showed a benefit only for intermediate stage HCC (BCLC B), and there is still no consensus concerning treatment methods and treatment strategies. In view of the highly diverse nature of HCC and practices, a scoring system designed to assist with decision making before the first TACE is performed or prior to repeating the procedure would be highly useful.
