Detailed histories were taken and the subjects were monitored until July 2008. HL patients were divided into two groups:Group included 45 patients with SOL,and Group included 53 patients without. Recurrence and reoperation indices of both groups were calculated and compared.RESULTS:The recurrence index was 0.135 in Group and 0.018 in Group fldex was 0.070 in Group and 0.010 in Group (P <0.001). The mean frequency of biliary operation was 2.07in Group (P = 0.001). Differences between the two groups are significant.CONCLUSION:HL patients with SOL tend to have a higher risk of recurrence and a larger demand for re-operation than those without this condition.展开更多
