Purpose To investigate the clinicopathologic-radiologic associations and prognostic implications of MRI-assessed intratumoral fat in HCCs. Materials and Methods This retrospective cohort study included consecutive adult patients who underwent resection for solitary HCCs and preoperative contrast-enhanced MRI from two tertiary-care hospitals in East Asia (March 2011 to December 2021) and Western Europe (September 2012 to December 2019). MRI scans were independently evaluated by three radiologists at each hospital. Based on Liver Imaging Reporting and Data System (LI-RADS) version 2018, intratumoral fat was defined as \"fat in mass more than adjacent liver,\" and the homogeneous subtype was defined as intratumoral fat \"in absence of mosaic and nodule-in-nodule architecture.\" Recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. Cox regression analyses were conducted to identify factors associated with RFS and OS. Results A total of 933 patients were included in the Asian (<i>n</i> = 736; median age, 53 years [IQR, 45-62 years]; 626 male) and European (<i>n</i> = 207; median age, 64 years [IQR, 55-70 years]; 161 male) cohorts. MRI-assessed intratumoral fat was detected in 30% (215 of 726) and 31% (64 of 207) of patients in the Asian and European cohorts, respectively (<i>P</i> = .72). In both cohorts, the steatohepatitic subtype, nonperipheral washout, enhancing capsule, and mosaic architecture were more frequent in tumors with intratumoral fat (<i>P</i> value range, <.001 to .04). Intratumoral fat in general was not associated with RFS or OS in either cohort (<i>P</i> value range, .48-.97). However, in the Asian cohort, homogeneous intratumoral fat was associated with longer RFS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.60; <i>P</i> = .009) and OS (HR, 0.33; <i>P</i> = .008) in multivariable Cox regression analyses. Conclusion MRI-assessed intratumoral fat was more frequent in steatohepatitic HCCs and associated with nonperipheral washout, enhancing capsule, and mosaic architecture. Although intratumoral fat was generally nonprognostic, homogeneous intratumoral fat was associated with longer RFS and OS in the Asian cohort.
