    Abstract
  • Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world, with the features of insidious onset, low surgical resection rate, and frequent early metastasis and recurrence. With the development of new molecular biology technology in recent years, a liquid biopsy technology, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) detection, has achieved encouraging results. This article reviews the current research status and future prospects of ctDNA as a key component of liquid biopsy in patients with HCC, in order to provide new ideas for the clinical treatment of HCC.
