Core Tip |
To determine the optimal cut-off value of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT) to predict hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) prognosis after liver resection, and to establish a scoring model, we analyzed the outcome of 172 HCC patients who underwent liver resection. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to determine the cut-off value of ALP and GGT. Preoperative risk factors for survival were evaluated by multivariate analysis. Based on the significant factors, a prognostic scoring model was established. Our model might affect the outcome of patients in different risk groups, and was superior to the traditional risk markers. |
