31 Distinctive Epidemiological and Clinical Features of NAFLD-HCC Incidence rates of NAFLD-HCC are on the rise in different geographical areas. Paucity of population-based studies. NAFLD-HCC is associated with older age, cryptogenic cirrhosis, obesity, diabetes and heart disease. No peculiar molecular stigmata. Unique pathological feature of SH-HCC. NAFLD-HCC has shorter survival times than virus-related liver tumors, often due to late diagnosis (lack of screening). Same therapeutic algorithm and response to therapy as for other etiologies, however, limited access to OLT. Primary prevention possible through life style interventions, yet needs validation. Secondary prevention (screening) to be implemented.
