Hepatoblastoma differs from the adult type of hepatoma in clinical and pathologic features. The ratio of fucosylation of serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) was determined in seven patients with hepatoblastoma and in 21 infants and children with otherwise elevated serum AFP, using the improved technique o
Using a double antibody radioimmunoassay test, a-fetoprotein was elevated (i.e., over 40 ng/ml) in 72% of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, 75% of patients with teratocarcinoma or embryonal cell carcinoma of the testis, 23% of patients with pancreatic carcinoma, 18% of patients with gastric ca
