Core Tip |
We conducted a retrospective cohort study with 804 patients with chronic viral hepatitis B or C, with and without human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) coinfection (399 HIV-coinfected and 405 monoinfected with HBV or HCV). The main objective was to assess the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma in HIV-coinfected patients. hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) was observed in 36 patients (10 HIV-positive and 26 HIV-negative). When adjusted for age, the role of HIV was no longer statistical significant for the development of HCC. Moreover, when analyzing cirrhotic patients only, the HCC incidence had no difference between the groups. Only age and alcohol use were associated with risk of developing HCC. |
