METHODS:Three hundred and thirteen HC patients admitted to the Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital(Shanghai,China) in 2000-2005 and 608 healthy controls were enrolled in this study.Association between HC and pre-existing medical conditions was studied with their adjusted odds ratio(OR) calculated by logistic regression analysis. RESULTS:The prevalence of choledocholithiasis(adjusted OR=2.704,P=0.039) ,hepatolithiasis(adjusted OR=3.278,P=0.018) ,cholecystolithiasis(adjusted OR =4.499,P<0.0001) ,cholecystectomy(adjusted OR =7.012,P=0.004) ,biliary ascariasis(adjusted OR= 7.188,P=0.001) ,liver fluke(adjusted OR=10.088,P =0.042) and liver schistosomiasis(adjusted OR=9.913,P=0.001) was higher in HC patients than in healthy controls. CONCLUSION:Biliary tract stone disease(choledocho-lithiasis,hepatolithiasis,cholecystolithiasis) and parasitic liver disease(biliary ascariasis,liver fluke,liver schistosomiasis) are the risk factors for HC in Chinese population.展开更多
