Liver transplantation for HBV-related liver disease: Impact of prophylaxis for HBV on HCC recurrence
In Italy, the combination of high-barrier nucleos(t)ide analogues and hepatitis B immunoglobulins remains the most widely used regimen for antiviral prophylaxis following liver transplantation for HBV-related liver disease. Hepatitis B recurrence after liver transplantation is a rare event and not associated with reduced survival. In transplant recipients with hepatocellular carcinoma, HBV recurrence was independently associated with hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence, though this may simply reflect an epiphenomenon without any causal relationship.
