  • It has been well recognized that the various cutaneous manifestations associated with the liver diseases. A clinical study was made of 255 patients (AVH 84, LC 70, HC 41, CAH 26, CPH 23, AH11) with the liver diseases at Yeungnam University Hospital during the periods from May to November, 1985. The authors classified the cutaneous manifestations into 7 groups according to pathogenesis, and compared them with other reports. The results were as follows; 1. In 255 patients with various liver diseases, 161 patients (63%) showed the various cutaneous manifestations. 2. The various cutaneous manifestations were jaundice and/or pruritus (43.1%), vascular changes (39.6%), allergic manifestations (10.6%), nail changes (5.1%), hormone-induced changes (4.3%), pigmentary changes (3.5%) and others (2.4%) in that order. 3. Cutaneous manifestations were associated most frequently with liver cirrhosis (1.6 groups) and the least with chronic active hepatitis (0.7 group). 4. Allergic manifestations were seen mainly in patients with acute viral hepatitis. Three patients showed the serum sickness-like prodrome. 5. The other cutaneous manifestations were seen mainly in patients with chronic liver diseases.

  • To check the possible application of our anti-AFP monocional antibodies (MAbs) as immunodiagnostic reagents for hepatocellular carcinoma, ELISA and immunohistochemical assay were performed on the sera and liver biopsy specimens from the patients of hepatocellular carcinoma and other non-malignant hepatic disease. By non-competitive ELISA using anti-AFP MAbs, the highest incidence of AFP value was found only in the sera of hepatocellular carcinoma patients, i.e., more than 54% of patients had serum AFP levels of more than 500 ng/mi. By immunoperoxidase and indirect immunofluorescence techniques, anti-AFP MAbs were found to react with cytoplasm of hepatoceliular carcinoma cells. However immunohistochemical reactIvity to AFP in hepatocellular carcinoma cells was lower than that in non-neoplastic liver cells adjacent to the hepatocellular carcinoma. From these results with the similar findings from other studies, we suggest that AFP antigen is appropriate in the diagnosis assay (ELISA) but is not by immunohistochemical detection.

  • The liver fibrosis is a disease we often see in clinical medicine, and the persistence and repeatition of inflammation and necrosis of liver cells continue for several years, and it is proceeded to cirrhosis. So decrease of death rate and prevalence rate by complications of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma is main task of clinical medicine by protection of chronic liver ailment patients from proceeding to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. So this study tried to represent the ultrasonic image, blood test, the relationship with liver stiffness of diffuse liver ailment patients as numbers. This study was performed with patients from whom the image was taken by ultrasonic and 141 people who were treated by fibroscan, the basic data for blood test was obtained from the test results at the time when ultrasonic image and liver fibroscan was performed. The statistical analysis was performed by One-way analysis of variance(ANOVA) to verify difference between groups. The value of liver stiffness was increased in the order of normal, chronic liver disease and cirrhosis. As a results, ALT and Albumin have no statistical difference between object groups, and there are statistical differences in the results of ultrasonic decoding at age, AST, ALP, Bilirubin, PLT, PT, and kPa, and they are statistically meaningful(p<0.005). And the value of liver stiffness of chronic liver ailment was presented only as over 12.5kPa in other study, but it was represented as numbers for quantitative diagnosis by presenting average kPa threshold value according to disease in this study. And by presenting relationship of diagnosed results, it is considered that it could be used as first tool to diagnose chronic liver ailment patients according to their disease.
