摘要
Liver fibrosis influences liver regeneration and surgical outcomes. The fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) index is strongly associated with liver fibrosis and cirrhosis. This study aimed to examine the prognostic significance of the combination of FIB-4 index and Protein Induced by Vitamin K Absence or Antagonist-II (PIVKA-II) (PIVKA-II-FIB-4 index score) in patients who underwent curative resection for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).We included 284 patients who underwent elective hepatic resection for HCC between January 2000 and December 2018. We retrospectively investigated how FIB-4 index is related to disease-free survival and overall survival.According to a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, the optimal cutoff value of the FIB-4 index was 3.44. In a multivariate analysis, high PIVKA-II and FIB-4 index values were independent predictors of both disease-free survival (P = 0.013 and P = 0.005, respectively) and overall survival (P = 0.048 and P < 0.001, respectively). We classified the PIVKA-II and FIB-4 index levels into two groups (high vs. low) and calculated a new score (PIVKA-II-FIB-4 index score; 0-2) by the sum of each measurement (high, 1; low, 0). The 5 year overall survival rates of patients with PIVKA-II-FIB-4 index scores of 0, 1, and 2 were 84.9, 74.4, and 47.1%, respectively (P < 0.001).The combination of the preoperative PIVKA-II and FIB-4 index may be a prognostic factor of HCC after hepatic resection, suggesting that the combined score is useful in assessing the liver fibrosis status in cancer cases.
