Clinical Patterns and Outcome of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Patients with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.
Conclusions: NAFLD-related HCCs were more often detected at an advanced stage with infiltrative patterns, although they showed no significant difference in survival compared to ALD-related or HBV-related HCCs. A future prospective research should be focused on identifying NAFLD patients who require strict surveillance in order to early detect and timely treat HCC.
