Abstract:Objective To analyze the risk factors for the recurrence of primary liver cancer after hepatectomy.Meth-ods A total of 87 cases of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma undergoing hepatectomy were selected and the recurrence was observed.Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for postoperative recurrence.Results The medi-an follow-up of 87 patients was 36 months and the recurrence rate was 33.3%(29 cases).Cox regression analysis revealed that preoperative AFP-L3%≥10%, macronodular cirrhosis, the number of tumor >3, the maximal diameter of tumor >5 cm,hepatic veins or portal vein tumor thrombus and the elevated levels of HBV-DNA were independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (all P<0.05).Conclusions The independent risk factor for the postoperative recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma are AFP-L3%≥10%, macronodular cirrhosis, the number of tumor>3, the maximal diameter of tumor >5 cm,hepatic veins or portal vein tumor thrombus and the elevated levels of HBV-DNA.
