Chronic kidney disease is a major public health issue globally and patients with chronic kidney disease have a higher risk of hepatocellular cancer. Viral hepatitis is a well-known cause of HCC, particularly in CKD population. Treatment options include liver transplant, local approach, and tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
Simple Summary Chronic kidney disease is a major public health issue globally and the risk of hepatocellular cancer appears greater in patients with chronic kidney disease compared with the general population. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is a liver disorder ranging from simple fatty infiltration to advanced fibrosis plus inflammation; it plays a role in developing liver-related and extra liver-related diseases including HCC and CKD, respectively. Approximately 90% of HCCs are associated with a known underlying etiology; viral hepatitis is a well-known cause of HCC, particularly in CKD population. Antiviral therapy of HBV and HCV is important in the management of HCC in CKD patients. Therapy of HCC in CKD patients includes liver transplant (in selected patients), local approach (surgery or interventional radiology), and tyrosine kinase inhibitors (advanced HCC). Chronic kidney disease is a major public health issue globally and the risk of cancer (including HCC) is greater in patients on long-term dialysis and kidney transplant compared with the general population. According to an international study on 831,804 patients on long-term dialysis, the standardized incidence ratio for liver cancer was 1.2 (95% CI, 1.0-1.4) and 1.5 (95% CI, 1.3-1.7) in European and USA cohorts, respectively. It appears that important predictors of HCC in dialysis population are hepatotropic viruses (HBV and HCV) and cirrhosis. 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates are lower in HCC patients on long-term dialysis than those with HCC and intact kidneys. NAFLD is a metabolic disease with increasing prevalence worldwide and recent evidence shows that it is an important cause of liver-related and extra liver-related diseases (including HCC and CKD, respectively). Some longitudinal studies have shown that patients with chronic hepatitis B are aging and the frequency of comorbidities (such as HCC and CKD) is increasing over time in these patients; it has been suggested to connect these patients to an appropriate care earlier. Antiviral therapy of HBV and HCV plays a pivotal role in the management of HCC in CKD and some combinations of DAAs (elbasvir/grazoprevir, glecaprevir/pibrentasvir, sofosbuvir-based regimens) are now available for HCV positive patients and advanced chronic kidney disease. The interventional management of HCC includes liver resection. Some ablative techniques have been suggested for HCC in CKD patients who are not appropriate candidates to surgery. Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization has been proposed for HCC in patients who are not candidates to liver surgery due to comorbidities. The gold standard for early-stage HCC in patients with chronic liver disease and/or cirrhosis is still liver transplant.
