Résumé

Inflammatory biomarkers are increasingly used as outcome predictors in the field of oncology and liver transplantation for HCC, but no study has shown the prognostic value of IL6 after LT. The goal of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of IL-6 on histopathological features of HCC on explant, its predictive value on recurrence risk and its additional value to other scores and inflammatory markers at the time of transplantation.
