title: [The analysis of prognostic factors of primary hepatocellular carcinoma with Cox model].
abstract: This paper reports the application of Cox regression model in prognostic factors analysis of Primary Hepatocellular Carcinoma (PHC), based on the data obtained from 1618 registered of cases PHC and 432 hospitalized patients of PHC in ZhongShan City from 1980 to 1989. The result shows that there is an association between PHC and the following factors: extrahepato metastasis, therapeutic method, clinical stage, alpha-fetoprotein, gamma-glutamyl-transpeptidase, the number of tumors in the liver, the size of the tumor, icteric index and history of cirrhosis. Among these factors, clinical stage III, large liver cancer are unfavorable factors for PHC prognosis, while hepatectomy, hepatic artery catheterization chemotherapy, are favorable prognostic factors.
