(a) Graph showing overall survival of hepatocellular carcinoma patients who underwent liver transplantation at our centre between February 1998 and June 2017. (b) Kaplan–Meier curve comparing survival of hepatocellular carcinoma patients stratified according to hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence. The calculated value of the corresponding log-rank test is shown. (c) Graphs showing the cumulative relative causes of death of transplanted hepatocellular carcinoma patients over time, stratified according to the presence or absence of recurrence. Between the two groups, differences were significant for all causes except recurrence of the underlying liver disease (Supplementary Table 1).
