Abstract:Background
Hepatoid adenocarcinoma (HAC) is a poorly differentiated extrahepatic tumor that can produce alpha-fetoprotein (AFP). The prognostic factors of HAC have not been fully stated in the literature.

Methods
In total, 265 cases with HAC were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database from 2004–2015. A prognostic nomogram was produced using the discovered risk fac… Show more
