Increased concentrations of serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) occur in several physiological (pregnancy) and pathological (liver regeneration, tumour formation etc.) conditions. Measurement of serum AFP levels may assist in the detection of fetal abnormalities during pregnancy, in the detection of renewed tumour growth and metastases in cases of AFP producing tumours and in monitoring some diseases of the liver. In this paper some results are given concerning the follow-up of some patients with tumours of the testis and the possibilities of determining the source of elevated serum AFP (regenerating hepatocytes, malignant liver cells, hepatic metastases from other tissues) in patients with liver diseases.
血清甲胎蛋白（AFP）浓度升高出现在多种生理（妊娠）和病理（肝脏再生、肿瘤形成等）情况下。测定血清AFP水平有助于在孕期检测胎儿异常，在AFP产生肿瘤的病例中检测肿瘤复发和转移，并监测某些肝脏疾病。本文给出了一些关于睾丸肿瘤患者随访以及肝病患者血清AFP升高来源（再生肝细胞、恶性肝细胞、其他组织的肝转移灶）判定可能性的结果。
