Abstract

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver malignant tumor in the world. The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma varies worldwide and is correlated with the incidence of hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus. In addition to viral hepatitis, there are other risk factors such as alcohol consumption that causes alcoholic liver disease and obesity and diabetes associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) / non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Most of these risk factors lead to the development of liver cirrhosis. One of the most commonly used stages of hepatocellular carcinoma is Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) staging system that can also determine which therapy will be given to patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. The aim of this study was to determine the profile and risk factors of hepatocellular carcinoma patients. This cross-sectional study using HCC patient’s medical records in Adam Malik General Hospital from January 2016 – June 2017. There were 182 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma with the highest age group 40-60 years (54.4%), dominated by male sex (80.2%), occupation with the highest prevalence is self-employed (27.5%), has no family history (97.8%), risk factors with the highest prevalence is hepatitis B (47.3%), Child-Pugh B (57.1%), multinodular radiology (51.1%), AFP increased, BCLC stage B (40.7%) and treated with symptomatic treatment (78%). The highest risk factor in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma is hepatitis B.
