原发性肝癌(肝瘿)是我国常见癌瘤之一,在解放前10年仅有537例的报导。目前其发病率有日益增高的趋势。比欧美可高5～10倍左右。据我国38个医学院校病理科统计1979例尸检的恶性肿瘤中发现肝癌竟占26.7%,属于首位值得重视。早期发现、早期诊断肝癌十分重要。据祖国医学的整体观念“有诸内必形诸外”的理论, Primary liver cancer (liver cirrhosis) is one of the common cancers in China. Only 537 cases were reported in the 10 years before liberation. At present, its incidence has been increasing. It can be 5 to 10 times higher than Europe and the United States. According to statistics of pathology of 38 medical schools in China, 1979 cases of malignant tumors found in autopsy actually accounted for 26.7% of liver cancer, which is worthy of attention. Early detection and early diagnosis of liver cancer are very important. According to the overall concept of the motherland’s medicine, there is a theory that all things must be taken apart from each other.
