Summary

A total of 145 Liver transplantation (LT) recipients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were retrospectively enrolled at Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital between 2006 and 2019. Clinical records from 7 days before LT (pre-LT) to 1 year after LT (post-LT) were analysed. In a prospective study from March 2022 to June 2023, 20 lymphopenia and 25 non-lymphopenia HCC recipients were enrolled, and a phenotypic analysis of peripheral blood lymphocytes was performed using multiparameter flow cytometry.

Detailed description

A total of 145 Liver transplantation (LT) recipients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were retrospectively enrolled at Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital between 2006 and 2019. Clinical records from 7 days before LT (pre-LT) to 1 year after LT (post-LT) were analysed including overall survival, recurrence-free survival, association between clinical parameter with mortality, patient characteristics by pre-lymphopenia and post-lymphopenia levels and lymphocyte status of HCC patients with usage of different immunosuppressants. In prospective study from March 2022 to June 2023, 20 lymphopenia and 25 non-lymphopenia HCC recipients were enrolled, and a phenotypic analysis of peripheral blood lymphocytes was performed using multiparameter flow cytometry to identify the major immune cell subsets and the characteristics of patients in the prospective cohort between pre-LT lymphopenia and non-lymphopenia groups.
