摘　　要：Objective: To investigate the factors affecting progno- sis of patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma (PHC) after resection. Methods: From 1976 to 1992, 213 patients with PHC treated with hepatectomy were followed up for more than 5 years. Thirty-one of the patients who had sur- vived for more than 5 years were compared with 56 patients who had survived for less than 5 years. Results: Early detection of tumor, radical resection, number of tumors, capsule formation, operation safe distance, presence of portal tumor embolus, pre- sence of cirrhosis and tumor size were important fac- tors affecting the prognosis of patients with PHC. The proportion of small liver cancer in the patients who had survived for more than 5 years was greatly larger than that in the control group. Conclusions: Early detection of tumor and radical re- section are of value in raising the 5-year survival rate. Much remains to be investigated about the rela- tionship between safe margin distance and prognosis of patients with PHC.Objective: To investigate the factors affecting progno- sis of patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma (PHC) after resection.
