“…As multiple studies clarified the influence of HBV genotypes on the natural history and the outcome of HBV infection, it is likely that certain genotypes may increase the risk of HCC development. A study from north-eastern India showed predominance of genotype D followed by similar prevalence of genotypes A and C in HCC patients [33]. Another Indian study also reported the role of genotype D (odds ratio, OR = 1.8) and mixed genotypes (odds ratio, OR = 6.9) and higher viral load in HCC risk [34].…”

“…The most common etiological factor for HCC is the cirrhotic liver, which provides a pro-carcinogenic intrahepatic environment (4,5). The most notable risk factors, including chronic viral hepatitis caused by hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus infection, alcohol abuse, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and other abnormal metabolic conditions, contribute to the development of cirrhosis, particularly in East Asian countries where HBV infection is endemic (6)(7)(8). HCC is generally diagnosed in individuals at an advanced stage due to the lack of early symptoms (6).…”
