Abstract
We provide an overview of the recommendations provided by national and international gastroenterology/hepatology societies for the management of patients with chronic liver diseases or liver transplantation during the COVID-19 pandemic. We searched websites of 125 national and international societies of gastroenterology/hepatology to extract data on the recommendations for management of patients with chronic liver disease, autoimmune hepatitis, hepatocellular carcinoma, or liver transplantation during the COVID-19 pandemic. The final sample included recommendations for patients with chronic liver disease from 20 national or international societies.
