Background And Aims: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) recurrence after liver transplantation (LT) seems unavoidable and gradual. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy in the post-LT setting of patients transplanted for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) of recurrent hepatic steatosis and fibrosis identified with FibroScan, compared to biopsy findings.

Methods: This prospective cohort study included adults transplanted for MASH between 2010 and 2022 in three LT centres in Spain who underwent FibroScan and biopsy at least 1-year after LT.

Methods: A digital questionnaire assessing vaccine policies, safety, efficacy, and center data was administered online to LT centers.
