Evaluation of alpha-fetoprotein in early infancy
J Pediatr Surg.
1978 Apr.
Abstract
Serum AFP concentrations of normal subjects were statistically analyzed in order to obtain the normal ranges in early infancy. The 95% prediction band would seem to offer a convenient means of evaluating serum AFP in the age range 0-300 days of life. Some illustrative cases, whose AFP values were formerly considered to be abnormally high but later proved to be within normal range, are presented.
