Abstract: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for majority of the cases of primary liver cancer and is one of the most malignant tumors with a steadily increasing incidence worldwide. In HCC, the hepatic damage causes biochemical alterations in the body which are reflected in several tests. Assessment of these changes can be of value in the diagnosis. In the present investigation the plasma biochemical parameters including glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL-C, total protein, albumin, globulin, A:G ratio, bilirubin (direct & total), creatinine, BUN, uric acid, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride, cholinesterase, SGOT, SGPT, alkaline phosphatase, CKMB and gamma glutamyl transferase of the HCC patients undergoing treatment were analyzed. The plasma levels of HDL-Cholesterol and Potassium were lower than the normal levels while the levels of Gamma Glutamyl Transferase, Aspartate transaminase, and Lactate Dehydrogenase were higher than the normal range.
