Figure 1 Survival curves and Tumor recurrence curves (Kaplan-Meier method) of elderly patients with hepatocellular carcinoma with a 30 > body mass index ≥ 30 who underwent laparoscopic liver resection before propensity score matching. A: Overall survival (OS) curves were constructed using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test, OS significantly did not differ between the two groups; B: Recurrence-free survival (RFS) curves were constructed using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test, hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence significantly differs between the two groups; C: OS curves were constructed using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test; after propensity score matching, survival remained significantly different; D: RFS curves were constructed using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test; after propensity score matching, recurrence remained significantly different. BMI: Body mass index.
