Abstract
Objective: To describe some of the pathological characteristics of hepatocellular carcinoma and to find out about the relationship with hepatitis B virus genotype. Subject and method: A cross-sectional study of 107 HCC hepatitis-B-virus-infected patients (genotype B and C) were pathologically confirmed primary HCC following surgery at Cho Ray Hospital. Result: Histopathological structure raft accounted for 57%. The average and poor differentiation accounted for 78.5% and 21.5%, respectively. There was a relationship between the degree of differentiation with the Edmondson-Steiner grade and histological structure (p<0.001). Conclusion: The histopathological structure of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients infected with hepatitis B virus is mainly raft. The degree of differentiation is related to the Edmondson-Steiner grade and histological structure.
