Abstract

OBJECTIVE To investigate the value of serum AFP,CEA,CA19-9 in the combined detection in the diagnosis of liver cancer.METHODS Totally 36 patients with liver cancer,30 patients with cirrhosis and the same period the health physical examination in the hospital,32 healtly patients as controls from Jan 2008 to Jan 2009 in our hospital,were tested for serum AFP test,CEA,CA19-9 level.RESULTS HCC AFP,CEA,CA19-9 levels were significantly higher than the liver cirrhosis group;HCC group,positive rate of combined detection 88.9%,liver cirrhosis group was significantly higher than 46.7% and control group 6.3%,the difference was statistically significant(P0.05).CONCLUSION To perform the combined detection of serum AFP,CEA and CA19-9 for the liver cancer patients has important clinical value in early diagnosis of liver cancer.
