  1. Her liver function tests were within the normal range at 62 years and 8 months old and 62 years and 10 months old. Her liver function test results showed slight abnormalities at 63 years and 6 months old. Among tumor markers assessed at that time, CEA and CA19-9 levels were elevated; both markers were within normal range 10 months before
  2. AFP1) α-fetoprotein, ALT2) alanine aminotransferase, AST3) aspartate aminotransferase, CEA4) carcinoembryonic antigen, D. Bil5) direct bilirubin, T. Bil6) total bilirubin
