Diagnostic accuracy of serum protein induced by vitamin K absence (PIVKA‐II), serum a‐fetoprotein and their combination for hepatocellular carcinoma among Caucasian cirrhotic patients with diagnostic or non‐diagnostic serum a‐fetoprotein levels

Diagnostic accuracy of serum protein induced by vitamin K absence (PIVKA‐II), serum a‐fetoprotein and their combination for hepatocellular carcinoma among Caucasian cirrhotic patients with diagnostic or non‐diagnostic serum a‐fetoprotein levels

Abstract Aim The aim of our study was to evaluate the accuracy of serum biomarkers (AFP/PIVKA‐II) and their combination in HCC diagnosis among Caucasian cirrhotic patients. Methods Serum AFP/PIVKA‐II levels were evaluated in 218 cirrhotics (163 males, 118 CTP‐A, 66 ALBI‐I, 111 with varices, 63 with...
