The association between hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cirrhosis provides a formidable means for prospectively studying patients who are at risk of HCC. Early diagnosis of HCC is possible not only due to knowledge of the risk factors for this tumor, but also because HCC has a very long phase of

We report here on three patients with cirrhosis for whom an early recognition of hepatocellular carcinoma was made possible by the measurement of the degree of fucosylation (fucosylation index) of a-fetoprotein. Increased levels of this index associated with a moderate increment of serum concentrati
