摘要
Objective:To construct a nomogram based on the albumin-bilirubin(ALBI)grade to provide prognostic value for hepatitis C virus(HCV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)patients who underwent ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation(US-PMWA).Methods:From April 2005 to January 2018,183 treatment-naIve patients with 251 HCV-related HCCs according to the Milan criteria received US-PMWA subsequently.The overall survival(OS)and recurrence-free survival(RFS)were compared between groups classified by ALBI grade.Cox proportional hazard regression model based on risk factors for survival and recurrence was used to construct the nomogram.Results:The cumulative OS rates at 1-,3-,5-and 10-year were 97.7%,73.6%,54.5%and 34.5%,respectively.Stratified according to ALBI grade,the 1-,3-,and 5-year OS in the ALBI grade 1 group and grade 2 group were 99.2%,92.4%,77.9% and 97.7%,52.3%,38.6%,respectively,with significant statistical difference(P<0.001).No significant statistical difference was detected in the1-,3-,and 5-year RFS rates in the ALBI grade 1 group and grade 2 group(P=0.220).The major complication rate was 1.6%.Multivariate analysis results showed age,α-fetoprotein level,tumor number,platelet count,location,Child-Turcotte-Pugh(CTP)and ALBI grade were associated with OS,which generated the nomograms.Internal validation with 1000 bootstrapped sample sets had good concordance index of 0.769(95%CI 0.699-0.839)in OS.Conclusions:This nomogram based on ALBI grade was a visualization risk model,which could provide personalized prediction of long-term outcomes for HCV-related HCC patients after US-PMWA.
