Integration of hbv dna inside hepatocytes

It is known that the hbv dna gets integrated into the human genome in hepatocytes becoming part of the human dna. This is so frightening, considering the result of altered human dna; are there any serious consequences of this type of integration reported yet? Is HCC the result of such integration, for eg.?
