The treatment of liver cancer is still a challenge in the world, and it is mainly refers to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). There are many factors affecting the overall survival rate of HCC; the recurrence of HCC is the main risk factor affecting the survival of patients, hence, it is urgent to explore the clinical treatment of recurrent HCC to obtain long-term survival of the patients. Up to now, surgical treatment is a radical treatment for HCC. Similarly, liver resection and liver transplantation are still the main therapy methods for recurrent HCC. In addition, radiofrequency ablation and transcatheter arterial chemoembolization and other local treatments still play an irresistible role. Therefore, emphasizing the postoperative follow-up of patients, diagnosing recurrent HCC in early stage, paying attention to the risk factors of HCC recurrence and selecting a suitable treatment plan for individuals are critical ways to prolong the survival of patients.
