ABSTRACT: Aims
This study aims to determine differences in severity of background liver disease at hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) diagnosis and long-term survival outcomes among patients undergoing liver resection for HCC in the background of metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) compared to chronic hepatitis B (CHB) alone or concurrent CHB (CHB/MAFLD).Methods
Patient demographics and comorbidities, clinicopathologic data, perioperative and long-term outcomes among patients who underwent liver resection for HCC were reviewed. Overall and recurrence-free survival were calculated with the Kaplan-Meier method, with the values compared using the log-rank test.Results
From January 2014 to December 2018, 1325 patients underwent potential curative liver resect
