This study aimed to examine the utility of peripheral blood CD8+T cells in predicting prognosis in HCC after curative hepatectomy. Methods: 79 newly diagnosed HCC patients from August 2018 to July 2023 were selected as research objects, we analyzed the prognostic value of peripheral blood CD8+T cells of HCC patients who underwent curative hepatectomy. The number of CD8+T cells was detected by flow cytometry. Results: The number of CD8+T cells was significantly decreased in patients who developed recurrence and death (all p Cox regression demonstrated that the number of CD8+T cells was an independent indicator for poor prognosis after hepatectomy (both p < 0.050). The recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in decrease group were significantly shorter than non-decrease group. The results were confirmed by the subgroup analysis. Conclusion: The number of CD8+T cells in peripheral blood is associated with dismal outcomes in HCC patients and can serve as a novel prognostic indicator for HCC patients after curative hepatectomy.展开更多
