Long term outcomes of patients transplanted for hepatocellular carcinoma with human immunodeficiency virus infection.

Background: We aimed to study outcomes in HIV + patients with HCC in the US following Liver Transplantation (LT) using the UNOS dataset.

Methods: The database was queried from 2003 to 2016 for patients undergoing LT with HCC, HIV+, and HCC/HIV+.

Results: Out of 17,397 LT performed for HCC during the study period, 113 were transplanted for HCC with HIV infection (91 isolated livers).
