Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a relevant complication occurring in individuals with advanced Metabolic dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD). Recent epidemiological data suggest an alarming increase in the HCC burden worldwide, with a relevant proportion attributable to MASLD (up to 38 %), either in cirrhotic or non-cirrhotic livers. In view of the changing landscape of metabolic syndrome as "silent pandemic", this narrative review aims to provide an updated picture of the burden of HCC in individuals with MASLD. In the complex pathophysiological pathways linking insulin resistance to MASLD and cardiometabolic syndrome, metabolic inflammation appears a relevant driver of systemic as well as organ-specific complications. Novel insights from the field of immunology, gut-derived liver damage, and association with extra-hepatic cancers will be discussed. Finally, strategies for risk-based HCC surveillance (circulating biomarkers, prognostic models and polygenic risk scores) will be provided and the potential impact of novel drug targeting fibrosing Metabolic dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH) on incident HCC will be discussed.
