The Utility of Serum Alpha-fetoprotein for Monitoring for Relapse of Alpha-fetoprotein-Positive Hepatoblastoma.
Hepatoblastoma is the most common liver malignancy in children. Treatment typically involves surgery and cisplatin-based chemotherapy. After therapy completion, children undergo repetitive surveillance imaging to screen for relapse, which occurs in <12% of cases. Monitoring for relapse has gradually shifted to serial determination of serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) alone as most cases have AFP elevation at the time of relapse. Little primary data supports, such a practice, however, and herein we present both our institutional experience with relapsed hepatoblastoma and a careful review of published literature on this topic. While serial AFP monitoring may suffice for most patients, certain clinical characteristics should give pause to the practitioner, when considering posttreatment monitoring with serum AFP alone.
