Objective: Patients diagnosed with HBV may also have with typical risk prognosis. This study aims to compare the effects of cirrhosis patients with HBV with and without risk factors on post-transplant follow-ups, and postoperative complications. Material and method: The data from 359 patients were retrospectively analyzed. Those without preoperative risk factors were classified as group 1(n=224), and those with risk factors were classified as group 2 (n=135). These patients were compared in terms of complications during their postoperative follow-up. Student's t-test, ANOVA test, Mann–Whitney U test, Kruskal Walis test, chi-square test, and Fisher's exact test were used, and p<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: When group 1 and group 2 were compared in terms of postoperative mortality, infections, bleeding complications, and biliary system complications, no statistically significant difference was found (p=0.62, p=0.95, p=0.46, p=0.19). Bleeding was significantly higher in patients with obesity and three comorbidities (DM, HT, and HL) (p= 0.04, p=0.01). Infection, a statistically significant difference was found in patients with DM and CAD (p=0.02), HL and HVD (p=0.02), and three additional diseases (DM, HT, and HL) (p=0.02). Conclusions: Reducing the susceptibility to infection is important for those with obesity to lose weight and reduce post-transplant mortality rates.
