About Liver Cancer
Liver cancer occurs when abnormal cells in the liver grow uncontrollably. It may start in the liver (hepatocellular carcinoma) or spread to it from another organ such as the colon (metastatic liver cancer).
It often develops in a liver already affected by hepatitis B or C, fatty liver disease or cirrhosis. Detecting it early and treating it on time gives the best chance of a cure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the early signs of liver cancer?
Early liver cancer often causes no symptoms. As it grows, people may notice weight loss, loss of appetite, pain or a lump in the upper right abdomen, swelling, jaundice or tiredness. People with hepatitis B or C, cirrhosis or fatty liver disease should have regular screening.
How is liver cancer diagnosed?
Diagnosis usually involves blood tests (including AFP), an ultrasound, and a contrast CT or MRI scan. A biopsy is sometimes needed. These tests also show the stage of the cancer and how well the rest of the liver is working.
Is liver cancer curable?
When it is detected early, liver cancer can often be cured with surgery (liver resection), a liver transplant or ablation. For advanced disease, targeted therapy, immunotherapy and other treatments can control the cancer and improve quality of life.
What are the treatment options for liver cancer?
Options include surgical resection, liver transplantation, ablation (RFA or microwave), TACE, targeted therapy, immunotherapy and palliative care. The right choice depends on the size and number of tumours and on liver function.
How can I reduce the risk of liver cancer?
Get vaccinated against hepatitis B, get tested and treated for hepatitis B and C, avoid alcohol, maintain a healthy weight, and have regular check-ups if you have cirrhosis or fatty liver disease.
