Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the prognostic value of China Classification System and TNM staging in patients with liver cancer undergoing resection. Methods From Jan 1986 to Dec 2000, 246 patients underwent resection of liver cancer. At least three years of follow-up was made in these 246 cases. Results The 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10-year disease-free survival rates were 55%, 30%, 25%, 20% and 18%, respectively. The 1,3,5,7,and 10-year disease-free survival rates predicted by China Classification System and TNM staging were statistically different and positively correlated with each other. Differences of survival rate between stageⅠa、Ⅰb、Ⅱa 、Ⅱb and Ⅲ by China Classification System were all statistically significant. Conclusions Based both on tumor extension and liver function, China Classification System was more accurate in than TNM stage predicting the prognosis of liver cancer patients undergoing resection.
