Patients in whom hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) fell within the Milan Criteria pre- and post-liver transplantation (LTx) had significantly better survival rates than patients with HCC outside the Milan Criteria in explanted liver. This discordance between pre- and post-LTx characteristics probably reflects tumour progression. Patients with HCC outside the Milan Criteria on pre-LTx imaging had worse outcomes
