Impact of "No-touch" Technique on the Outcome of Liver Transplantation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Summary

The "no-touch" technique has been one of the most important principles of oncological surgery and aimed to prevent seeding and tumor cell dissemination. Previous studies in hepatectomy have shown that no-touch technique surgery can reduce HCC recurrence and improve the survival of patients. However, there is no consensus on whether the no-touch technique in LT for HCC improves the outcomes. This study aims to prospectively include liver transplant patients from multiple transplant centers, collecting their pre-transplant clinical information, post-transplant pathological records and exploring and clarify the correlation between "no-touch" technique and the prognosis of LT patients.

PROCEDURE

Liver transplantation with "No-touch" technique

The core principle of "no-touch" tumor surgery revolves around avoiding direct contact with the tumor or surrounding tissues as much as possible to minimize the release of cancer cells into the bloodstream or nearby tissues.
