Abstract: Tumor recurrence and metastasis after liver transplantation (LT) remains one of the most important factors that affect the outcome of LT for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The diagnosis and treatment strategies in the era of precision medicine, including utilizing multi‑omics, high‑throughput gene sequencing analysis, big data and artificial intelligence to select the biomarkers which can accurately predict the prognosis after LT, evaluating the immune status comprehensively, inducing immune tolerance, providing effective prevention for patients at a high risk of recurrence with sensitive antitumor drugs and attaching importance to individualized treatment for recurrence and metastasis, may further improve the outcome of LT. Combined with experience and review of relevant research articles, the authors elaborate perioperative diagnosis and treatment strategies of LT for HCC, aiming to promote the application of precision medicine in the field of LT.
