Prognostic and survival analysis of primary liver cancer after hepatectomy

Objective To explore the factors related to the prognosis and survival duration of primary liver cancer patients after hepatectomy.Methods The data of primary liver cancer patientswho were treated by surgical resection were analyzed retrospectively.Kaplain-Meier method was used to evaluate survival rates.Log-rank test and Cox regression analysis were used to screen out related clinical phathology factors.Results The median survival time was eighteen months.Univarivate analysis showed that liver function Child-Pugh classification,cirrhosis,tumor size,HBV infection,AFP,portal vein tumor thrombus significantly correlated with survival rates (P ＜ 0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that liver function Child-Pugh classification,tumor size,AFP and portal vein tumor thrombus were the independent prognostic factors of primary liver cancer (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Many factors are related to the prognosis of primary liver cancer after operation.Liver function Child-Pugh classification,tumor size,AFP and portal vein tumor thrombus affect prognostic independently.
