Core Tip Post-transplant hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence is a significant negative predictor of survival. There is no consensus in the treatment of recurrence. If possible, resection should be attempted. The use of systemic chemotherapy after transplant is limited to small retrospective cohort studies. Immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors in the post-transplant setting is challenging due to the potentially increased risk of allograft rejection. This opinion review illustrates a late post-transplant hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence treated with lenvatinib, with good tolerance and overall survival after lung and adrenal metastasis resections in a patient previously intolerant to sorafenib.
