Abstract:
At present,hepatectomy are recognized as the firsttreatment option for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).However,the patients have high frequency of recurrence after operation.In China,Most of the patients with HCC are related to chronic hepatitis B infection.The hepatitis B virus(HBV) factors such as:genotype,status of hepatitis B e antigen,HBV DNA level in serum and HBV DNA level in liver tissue influence the recurrence of tumors.Antiviral therapy,especially interferon therapy may be the effective method to prevent recurrence.HBV status also can influence the recurrence rate after transplant.
