ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the specific growth factor tumor (TSGF) in the treatment of chemoembolization (transcatheter) in the treatment of primary hepatic carcinoma (HCC) with the change of the level of arterial and transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE),and the evaluation of the value in the treatment.Methods From January 2012 to December 2014 in Inner Mongolia Medical University affiliated Hospital,75 patients with primary liver cancer were treated by TACE,and all patients were treated with TACE.Then the changes of liver function,blood routine,alpha-fetoprotein (AFP),and TSGF levels were monitored at the preoperative,postoperative 1 week,1 month,and 3 months.The curative effect was evaluated.Results At 1 week after operation,aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were significantly higher than those before operation,but no differences were compared to the preoperative 1 month after operation.There was no significant difference in the level of WBC before and after operation.At 1 week after operation,the averaged AFP and TSGF water were significantly increased,but the 1 week after operation was significantly decreased.At 1 month after operation,there was no difference in the levels of TSGF and AFP between complete remission + partial remission + stable disease (CR + PR + SD) and progress disease (PD),and the levels of AFP and CR + PR + SD in PD patients were significantly lower than those in patients with TSGF at 3 months after operation.The levels of TSGF and AFP were lower in PD patients after 3 months,and there was no difference between TSGF and AFP levels at the different time after treatment in patients with CR + PR + SD.There was no significant difference in AFP levels before and after AFP treatment,and the average water level of TSGF before treatment was significantly higher than that of TACE before and after treatment.The difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions TSGF level in patients with primary liver cancer patients with TACE treatment increased after the first rise,especially in the treatment of 1 month after the deterioration of the situation and the tumor has a significant correlation.In the evaluation of curative effect,it has a high value.Combined with AFP,CT examination can increase the long-term efficacy of TACE treatment of primary liver cancer.
