We investigated the factors affecting recurrence-free survival in patients with non-B non-C hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who received curative treatment. Decision-tree analysis was performed in 72 curative cases of non-B non-C HCC to extract the risk factors for recurrence. The reliability of the extracted risk factors was evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method and the Cox proportional hazards model. The decision-tree analysis extracted three factors-visceral adipose tissue (VAT) index (VATI; &lt;71 and ≥71 cm 2 /m 2 ), which was the cross-sectional areas of VAT on the computed tomographic image at the umbilical level, normalized by the square of the height, fasting immunoreactive insulin (FIRI; &lt;5.5 and ≥5.5 µU/mL), and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP; &lt;11 and ≥11 ng/mL). The Cox proportional hazards model showed that VATI (hazard ratio (HR): 2.556, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.191-5.486, p = 0.016), FIRI (HR: 3.149, 95% CI: 1.156-8.575, p = 0.025), and AFP (HR: 3.362, 95% CI: 1.550-7.288, p = 0.002) were all independent risk factors for HCC recurrence. Non-B non-C HCC patients with a higher VATI (≥71 cm 2 /m 2 ) or higher FIRI (≥5.5 µU/mL) and AFP (≥11 ng/mL) if VATI was &lt;71 cm 2 /m 2 are prone to recurrence after curative treatment.

Increased Visceral Adipose Tissue and Hyperinsulinemia Raise the Risk for Recurrence of Non-B Non-C Hepatocellular Carcinoma after Curative Treatment
