Key clinical point: The presence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or metabolic syndrome (MS) did not affect the long-term oncological outcomes in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated with multibipolar percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA).

Major finding: Neither NAFLD-HCC nor MS was associated with overall tumor recurrence (hazard ratio [HR], 1.12; P = .536 and HR, 0.99; P = .965, respectively) or overall survival (HR, 1.19; P = .45 and HR, 0.99; P = .980, respectively).

Study details: This multicenter retrospective study included 520 adult patients with HCC who underwent first-line multibipolar percutaneous RFA treatment.

Disclosures: The study did not receive any specific funding. T Dao, N Ganne-Carrié, and JC Nault reported receiving grants, speaker’s fees, personal fees, or invitations for medical meetings from various pharmaceutical companies.
