Correction: Management of Spontaneously Ruptured Hepatocellular Carcinomas in the Radiofrequency Ablation Era

  • The PLOS ONE Staff

There are several errors in this article.

In the abstract and the Introduction section, the term “chemoembolization” should be “embolization”.

Throughout the article, including Figure 1, the abbreviation "TACE" should be "TAE", with the exception of the second sentence in the sixth paragraph of the Results section, row fifteen of Table 4, and the figure legend of Figure 3c.

The correct version of the second sentence in the sixth paragraph of the Results section is: Sixteen patients in period 1 and 19 patients in period 2 received transarterial chemoembolization as a cancer treatment.

The correct version of Table 4 can be viewed below. The figure legend for Figure 3c is correct as is published.
