🩸 The new BSG HCC guidelines demand attention.
This Frontline Gastroenterology review distils what matters most for frontline clinicians:
🔹 Pragmatic, NHS-based treatment algorithm
🔹 Surveillance clarity — who to scan, who not to
🔹 Integration of systemic + local therapies
🔹 Managing bleeding risk in immunotherapy
The message? Current UK HCC outcomes can be improved — prevention, surveillance & access must be optimised.

On your next ward round or in the clinic think about whether your patient really needs to be on a PPI. #GITwitter #livertwitter #gutmicrobiome
