This patient presents with the serologic markers of chronic hepatitis B. His liver enzyme levels also indicate a viral hepatitis. In viral hepatitis ALT>AST, and in alcoholic hepatitis AST > ALT. Patients with viral hepatitis B and C have an increased risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma. Alpha-fetoprotein is a marker for hepatocellular carcinoma therefore (D) is the correct answer. Alpha-fetoprotein is also a tumor marker for yolk sac tumors. (A) is a tumor marker for hydatidiform moles, choriocarcinomas, and gestational trophoblastic tumors. (B) is a tumor marker for cancer that has metastasized to bone, obstructive biliary disease, and Paget’s disease of bone. (C) is a tumor marker for neuroblastoma. (E) is a tumor marker for colorectal, gastric, and pancreatic cancers.
Bottom Line: Hepatitis B and C predispose to hepatocellular carcinoma. α-fetoprotein is a tumor marker for hepatocellular carcinoma. |
