ALBUMIN-BILIRUBIN (ALBI) AND PLATELET-ALBUMIN-BILIRUBIN (PALBI) GRADES IN PATIENTS WITH HEPATOCELLULAR CARCINOMA WITH CIRRHOSIS AT THAI NGUYEN NATIONAL HOSPITAL
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: To analyze of the relationship between ALBI, PALBI grades and some clinical and subclinical characteristics in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with cirrhosis at Thai Nguyen National Hospital. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study of 112 patients with HCC with cirrhosis at Thai Nguyen National Hospital from May 2022 to August 2024. Results: A total of 112 patients were studied. The majority were males ( 76.8%), average age were 52.3±10.4 (year old). History of hepatitis B was 59.8%. The rate of Child-pugh A, B, C were: 67%, 22.3% and 10.7%, respectively. The rate of ALBI of grades 1,2,3 were 31.3%, 58.9% and 9.8% respectively; The rate of PALBI of grades 1,2,3 were 36.6%, 38.4% and 25.0% respectively. Conclussions: ALBI grades increased gradually with plasma AFP concentration and tumor number. There was no significant difference in ALBI grades with tumor size.
