Abstract:
Objective To investigate the risk factors affecting early mortality in spontaneous rupture in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)and explore the effective treatment.Methed A retrospective study of 34 consecutive patients with spontaneous rupture of HCC from January 1998 to January 2008 was conducted.Followup was conducted for more than 3 years.18 clinical ,biochemical and pathological factors influencing 30-day mortality were analyzed.Results 30-day mortality rate was 38% (n=13).Univariate analysis showed that presence of cirrhosis,Child's C status,shock on admission,higher blood transfusion requirement,raised α-fetoprotein (AFP),raised alkaline phosphatase(ALP)and raised aspartate transaminase(AST)were all associated with increased risk early death (P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis displayed that shock was an independent risk factor affecting early death.The median survival time was 14.4 months in 8 patiens receiving emergency curative rescection and 44.4 months in 5 cases underwent delayed curative resection,and the 1-and 3-year survival rate were 63% (5/8)and 13% (1/8)in the former group and 80% (4/5)and 60% (3/5)in the latter group.Conclusion Poor prognosis of spontaneous rupture of HCC is associated with poor liver reservation,advanced disease and large volume of haemorrhage.Shock and blood transfusion requirement are the independent factors affecting early mortality.Curative resection is a definite treatment and delayed curative resection following initial haemostasis has a safer and more effective result.
