AIM: To investigate the incidence, characteristics, and risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) in Chinese patients with primary biliary cirrhosis(PBC).METHODS: We reviewed the data of 52 PB Cassociated HCC patients treated at Beijing 302 Hospital from January 2002 to December 2013 and analyzed its incidence and characteristics between the two genders. The risk factors for PBC-associated HCC were analyzed via a case-control study comprising 20 PBC patients with HCC and 77 matched controls without HCC. The matched factors included gender, age, follow-up period and Child-Pugh scores. Conditional logistic regression was used to evaluate the odds ratios of potential risk factors for HCC development. A P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: The incidence of HCC in Chinese PBC patients was 4.13%(52/1255) and was significantly higher in the males(9.52%) than in the females(3.31%). Among the 52 PBC patients with HCC, 55.76%(29/52) were diagnosed with HCC and PBC simultaneously, and 5.76%(3/52) were diagnosed with HCC before PBC. The males with PBC-associated HCCwere more likely than the females to have undergone blood transfusion(18.75% vs 8.33%, P = 0.043), consumed alcohol(31.25% vs 8.33%, P = 0.010), smoked(31.25% vs 8.33%, P = 0.010), had a family history of malignancy(25% vs 5.56%, P = 0.012), and had serious liver inflammation, as indicated by the elevated levels of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase(P < 0.05). Conditional logistic regression analysis revealed that body mass index(BMI) ≥ 25 [adjusted odds ratio(AOR) = 1.116, 95%CI: 1.002-1.244, P = 0.045] and history of alcohol intake(AOR = 10.294, 95%CI: 1.108-95.680, P = 0.040) were significantly associated with increased odds of HCC development in PBC patients. CONCLUSION: HCC is not rare in Chinese PBC patients. Risk factors for PBC-associated HCC include BMI ≥ 25 and a history of alcohol intake. In addition to regular monitoring, PBC patients may benefit fro
