Background and Aims:
The RETREAT(Risk Estimation of Tumor REcurrence After Transplant) score is a simple risk stratification tool for postliver transplantation (LT) HCC recurrence that has been validated in retrospective cohort studies. A prospective, multicenter study is needed to further demonstrate accuracy especially given the evolving clinical demographics and HCC transplant practice. Our aim is to validate and compare the RETREAT score to other post-LT HCC recurrence risk scores in a contemporary, prospective cohort of patients.
