Abstract    Partial hepatectomy is the first choice of treatment for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the tumor recurrence remains a main limitation to the long-term survival of patients following partial hepatectomy for HCC. At present, it is a direct and urgent issue to find an appropriate management for recurrent HCC in the multidisciplinary team approach. Repeat hepatectomy is still considered as the most efficient management for recurrent HCC. The correct understanding of the value of repeat hepatectomy and the reasonable selection of surgical procedures are the main points of repeat hepatectomy for recurrent HCC after hepatectomy.
