Core Tip |
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an important cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). While the treatment of advanced HCC has recently undergone a revolution led by immunotherapy, concerns have been raised that NAFLD-related HCC might not respond well to these new therapies. This review will approach the pathophysiology of NAFLD-related liver cancer, the evidence on traditional systemic treatments and the most recent data on immunotherapy for this particular group of patients, showing that the management of this condition should be individualized. |
