Abstract

•Detection of D-dimer in hepatocellular carcinoma patients before and after DEB-TACE.•Elevated D-dimer level was related to tumor burden and poor liver function.•High levels of D-dimer estimated lower complete response to DEB-TACE therapy.•High levels of D-dimer could forecast shorter overall survival to some degree.•The D-dimer level was increased during DEB-TACE therapy.
