Abstract:
Objective To introduce clinical diagnostic specificity of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with serum AFP level in 21μg/L to 200μg/L. Methods Making a literature summarizaton based on the papers review.Results and Conclusions (1) The AFP level more than 20μg/L can be used as a diagnostic criteria of HCC when existing liver space occuping lesion (SOL). (2) The clinical diagnostic criteria using AFP level more than 20 μg/L instead of more than 200 μg/L would be helpful to avoid misdiagnosis of HCC with the AFP level in 21 μg/L to 200 μg/L. (3) The Combination of AFP level more than 20 μg/L with ultrasonography, CT scanning would have higher sensitivity and specificity than single diagnostic method.
