Abstract
Analysis of the clinical records of 163 patients with primary liver carcinoma was performed to identify factors affecting prognosis. The overall 3-year survival rate was 10%, and the median survival was 7.8 months. Survival was similar for patients with single or multiple tumor nodules. There was no significant association between nodule size of 3 cm or larger and survival. Patients who underwent resection had a longer survival. For patients without cirrhosis, location of the tumor in the left lobe regardless of whether it is resected appears to be a prognostic factor associated with prolonged survival. Female sex and the absence of cirrhosis were also associated with longer survival.
