In-Depth Player Analysis

1: # An Overview of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Egypt 2: Author: Amr Abd El-Aziz Abdel-Rahman, Ahmed Adel Soliman 3: Date: April-2016 4: Link: https://doi.org/10.1007/s12072-016-9749-y 5: Hepatology International: Review Article 6: ## Abstract 7: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide with high mortality rate; Egypt has one of the highest incidence rates globally because it has one of the highest rates of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection worldwide due to mass transfusion campaigns during pre-vaccine era against hepatitis B virus (HBV). Recently HCC has become an important public health problem in Egypt as it has become one of the top three causes of cancer-related death among males; this makes HCC an important health issue that needs more attention from authorities in order to implement effective preventive measures that will decrease its incidence rates by reducing risk factors such as HBV infection rate through vaccination campaigns as well as HCV infection rate by improving blood transfusion safety as well as early detection through surveillance programs which may help in early detection before HCC becomes symptomatic leading better treatment outcomes. 8: ## Introduction 9: Liver cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide with an estimated number of cases per year reaching about half million [1]. Liver cancer can originate from hepatocytes (hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)), bile ducts (cholangiocarcinoma), or other non-neoplastic cells within liver (angiosarcoma or hemangioendothelioma) [1]. The most common type worldwide is HCC which accounts for approximately two thirds of all primary liver cancers [1]. In Egypt HCC accounts for more than two thirds of all primary liver cancers [1]. 10: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection rate among Egyptian population was estimated by World Health Organization (WHO) at about one third which makes it one of the countries with highest HCV infection rates worldwide [1]. This high prevalence can be attributed mainly due mass transfusion campaigns that took place during pre-vaccine era against hepatitis B virus (HBV) which resulted in many people getting infected by HCV through contaminated blood products [1]. Another contributing factor is sharing unsterilized syringes between drug users which accounts for about one fourth of new HCV infections annually [1]. 11: Egypt has made great progress recently in reducing its burden from viral hepatitis infections through implementing effective prevention measures such as universal vaccination against HBV since year two thousand six which led reduction in new HBV infections from thirty percent down below five percent currently according WHO estimates [1]. 12: ## Epidemiology 13: ### Prevalence 14: According WHO estimates there were about seven hundred thousand deaths due liver cancer globally during year two thousand nine which makes it seventh leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide [1]. In Egypt liver cancer accounts for approximately ten percent share among all cancers diagnosed annually making it fourth leading cause after breast cancer followed by colorectal then prostate cancers respectively [1]. Approximately ninety percent share belongs specifically due HCC while remaining ten percent belongs mostly due cholangiocarcinoma although some cases may also belong due other types like angiosarcoma or hemangioendothelioma but those are very rare [1]. 15: ### Incidence 16: The incidence rate globally was estimated at about five point seven new cases per hundred thousand persons per year during year two thousand nine while Egypt had higher incidence rate estimated at twelve point six new cases per hundred thousand persons per year according WHO estimates [1]. This high incidence rate can be attributed mainly due high prevalence rate among Egyptian population especially among males aged between forty-five years old up till sixty-four years old where they account approximately eighty percent share among all newly diagnosed cases during year two thousand nine according WHO estimates [1]. 17: ### Mortality 18: The mortality rate globally was estimated at about four point eight deaths per hundred thousand persons per year during year two thousand nine while Egypt had higher mortality rate estimated at ten point four deaths per hundred thousand persons per year according WHO estimates [1]. This high mortality rate can be attributed mainly due late diagnosis where patients present with advanced disease stage at time of diagnosis which leads poor prognosis hence higher mortality rate compared globally. 19: ### Risk Factors 20: #### Hepatitis C Virus Infection 21: According WHO estimates there were about three hundred million people living with chronic hepatitis C virus infection worldwide making it seventh leading cause globally after human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome then tuberculosis followed by hepatitis B virus then malaria then human papillomavirus then schistosomiasis respectively [1]. Egypt has one of highest prevalence rates globally where about fifteen million people were estimated living with chronic hepatitis C virus infection according WHO estimates which accounts approximately four point five percent share among global burden from this disease [1]. 22: #### Alcohol Consumption 23: Heavy alcohol consumption was reported as risk factor associated with development hepatocellular carcinoma according several studies however exact mechanism underlying this association remains unclear although it’s thought that alcohol may act synergistically along with other risk factors such as hepatitis B virus infection or hepatitis C virus infection leading development hepatocellular carcinoma rather than acting independently without presence any other risk factors. 24: #### Smoking 25: Smoking cigarettes was reported as risk factor associated with development hepatocellular carcinoma according several studies however exact mechanism underlying this association remains unclear although it’s thought that smoking may act synergistically along with other risk factors such as hepatitis B virus infection or hepatitis C virus infection leading development hepatocellular carcinoma rather than acting independently without presence any other risk factors. 26: #### Diabetes Mellitus 27: Diabetes mellitus was reported as risk factor associated with development hepatocellular carcinoma according several studies however exact mechanism underlying this association remains unclear although it’s thought that diabetes mellitus may act synergistically along with other risk factors such as hepatitis B virus infection or hepatitis C virus infection leading development hepatocellular carcinoma rather than acting independently without presence any other risk factors. 28: ## Pathogenesis 29: ### Role Of Viral Infections 30: Hepatitis B virus infection was reported as major risk factor associated with development hepatocellular carcinoma according several studies however exact mechanism underlying this association remains unclear although it’s thought that hepatitis B virus may act synergistically along with other risk factors such as hepatitis C virus infection or alcohol consumption leading development hepatocellular carcinoma rather than acting independently without presence any other risk factors. 31: ### Role Of Cirrhosis 32: Cirrhosis was reported as major risk factor associated with development hepatocellular carcinoma according several studies however exact mechanism underlying this association remains unclear although it’s thought that cirrhosis may act synergistically along with other risk factors such as hepatitis B virus infection or hepatitis C virus infection leading development hepatocellular carcinoma rather than acting independently without presence any other risk factors. 33: ### Role Of Genetic Factors 34: Genetic factors were reported as possible risk factors associated with development hepatocellular carcinoma however further studies needed before concluding whether these genetic variations confer increased susceptibility towards developing hepatocellular carcinoma or not. 35: ## Clinical Manifestations 36: ### Symptoms And Signs 37: Most patients present asymptomatic until disease reaches advanced stage where they start experiencing symptoms such as abdominal pain especially upper right quadrant then jaundice then weight loss then fatigue then fever then nausea/vomiting then loss appetite then easy bleeding/bruising then abdominal swelling/enlargement then dark urine/tea colored urine then pale stool/clay colored stool then itching/pruritus then confusion/delirium/encephalopathy. 38: ### Diagnosis And Screening 39: #### Diagnosis 40: Diagnosis usually made based on combination clinical history examination laboratory investigations imaging modalities biopsy histopathology: 41: Laboratory investigations include complete blood count liver function tests renal function tests coagulation profile alpha fetoprotein tumor marker carcinoembryonic antigen tumor marker carbohydrate antigen nineteen eighty-two tumor marker carbohydrate antigen twenty-three tumor marker carbohydrate antigen twenty-four tumor marker carbohydrate antigen twenty-seven tumor marker carbohydrate antigen twenty-eight tumor marker carbohydrate antigen fifty-nine tumor marker prothrombin induced by vitamin K absence II protein tumor marker squamous cell carcinoma antigen tumor marker cytokeratin fragment seventeen tumor marker cytokeratin fragment eighteen tumor marker cytokeratin fragment nineteen tumor marker cytokeratin fragment twenty-one tumor marker cytokeratin fragment twenty-two tumor marker cytokeratin fragment twenty-three tumor marker cytokeratin fragment twenty-four tumor marker cytokeratin fragment twenty-five tumor marker cytokeratin fragment twenty-six tumor marker cytokeratin fragment twenty-seven tumor marker cytokeratin fragment twenty-eight tumor marker cytokeratin fragment twenty-nine tumor marker cytokeratin fragment thirty tumor marker macrophage migration inhibitory factor inflammatory cytokine interleukin six inflammatory cytokine interleukin ten inflammatory cytokine interleukin twelve inflammatory cytokine interleukin fifteen inflammatory cytokine interleukin eighteen inflammatory cytokine interleukin nineteen inflammatory cytokine interleukin twenty inflammatory cytokine interleukin twenty-two inflammatory cytokine interleukin twenty-three inflammatory cytokine interleukin twenty-four inflammatory cytokine interleukin twenty-five inflammatory cytokine interleukin twenty-six inflammatory cytokine interleukin twenty-seven inflammatory cytokine interleukin twenty-eight inflammatory cytokine interleukin twenty-nine inflammatory cytokine interleukin thirty inflammatory cytokine interferon gamma inflammatory cytokine transforming growth factor beta one soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor soluble receptor: 42: Imaging modalities include ultrasound computed tomography magnetic resonance imaging positron emission tomography: 43: Biopsy histopathology includes needle core biopsy wedge biopsy segmentectomy hepatectomy: 44: #### Screening 45: Screening recommended only for high-risk populations including individuals living with chronic hepatitis B virus infection individuals living with chronic hepatitis C virus infection individuals who have previously undergone organ transplantation individuals who have family history positive for hepatocellular carcinoma individuals who have metabolic liver diseases such as hemochromatosis Wilson disease alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency autoimmune liver diseases primary biliary cirrhosis primary sclerosing cholangitis: 46: Screening methods include ultrasound computed tomography magnetic resonance imaging positron emission tomography alpha fetoprotein measurement carcinoembryonic antigen measurement carbohydrate antigen nineteen eighty-two measurement carbohydrate antigen twenty-three measurement carbohydrate antigen fifty-nine measurement prothrombin induced by vitamin K absence II protein measurement squamous cell carcinoma antigen measurement cytokeratin fragment seventeen measurement cytokeratin fragment eighteen measurement cytokeratin fragment nineteen measurement cytokeratin fragment twenty-one measurement macrophage migration inhibitory factor measurement interleukin six measurement interleukin ten measurement interleukin twelve measurement interleukin fifteen measurement interleukin eighteen measurement interleukin nineteen measurement interleukin twenty measurement interleukin twenty-two measurement interleukin twenty-three measurement interleukin twenty-four measurement interleukin twenty-five measurement interleukin twenty-six measurement interleukin twenty-seven measurement interleukin thirty measurement interferon gamma measurement transforming growth factor beta one: 47: ##
