HCC recurrences in liver allografts of patients who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation for treatment of HCC. A) Axial computed tomography image demonstrating a hypervascular lesion (arrow) consistent with HCC within a patient’s cirrhotic native liver. B) Histopathology of lesion in explanted liver demonstrates features consistent with HCC (H & E stain, x100). C) Axial magnetic resonance image of large hypervascular lesion (arrow) within the liver allograft consistent with recurrent HCC. D) Histopathology of lesion resected from liver allograft demonstrates features consistent with HCC (H & E stain, x100).
