Summary

Background \& Aim: Presence of microvascular invasion (mvi) in the explanted liver defines a higher risk of recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after liver transplantation (LT). The aim of this study is to evaluate pre LT selection models of HCC recurrence specifically in patients without mvi in the explanted liver.

Methods: Three multicenter cohorts are going to be included: a Latin American, a French and an Italian cohort of consecutive adult patients with HCC a first LT performed during two different periods: 2005-2011 and 2012-2016. AFP model is going to be compared against Milan and San Francisco criteria according to each models accuracy and prediction of HCC recurrence among patients without microvascular invasion in the explanted liver considering these candidates as "Low-risk patients". Multivariate Cox regression analysis, with hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for 5-year recurrence is going to be done with Competing Risk Regression analysis and corresponding Subhazard Ratios (SHR).
