Primary cancer of the liver is characterized not only by laboratory evidence for cytolytic (87.5% cases), cholestatic (100% cases) syndromes, high levels of oncomarkers (CA-19-9, 50%; CEA, 68.75%; alpha FP, 43.75%) and activation of hemostasis system but, as shown at hepatobiligastroscintigraphy with 99m-Tc-brommeside, by at least 2-fold decline in absorptive and excretory function of hepatic polygonal cells (in 75% cases), at least a 5-fold decline in secretory function of the gallbladder (in 100% cases), cholestasis (in 100% cases) manifesting as a 3.8-fold reduction, on the average, of the ratio of secretory function of the gallbladder to that of the intrahepatic bile ducts, dilation of the latter (in 50% cases), Oddi's sphincter hypotonicity (in 50% cases). None of the patients showed duodenogastric reflux. |
