What is Liver Cancer?
Liver is situated inside the rib cage in
the upper right side abdomen. The liver it
has four lobes and is the largest solid
organ in the body. Detoxification (i.e.
removal of waste products and worn-out cells
from the blood), protein synthesis, and
production of bio-chemicals essential for
digestion are some of its functions.
Diagnosis of Liver Cancer
Blood tests Ultrasound Computed
Tomography (CT) Scan Magnetic Resonance
Imaging (MRI) Liver Biopsy Laparoscopy

  • Surgery
  • Partial Hepatectomy  Surgery to remove part of
    the liver is called partial hepatectomy. This
    operation is only attempted if the person is
    healthy enough and all of the tumor can be
    removed while leaving enough healthy liver
    behind. Unfortunately, most liver cancers cannot
    be completely removed. Often the cancer has
    spread beyond the liver, has become very large,
    or is in too many different parts of the liver.
  • Liver Transplant  When it is available, a
    liver transplant may be the best option for
    some people with small liver cancers. At this
    time, liver transplants are reserved for those
    with small tumors (either 1 tumor smaller than 5
    cm across or 2 to 3 tumors no larger than 3 cm)
    that have not invaded nearby blood vessels. In
    most cases, transplant is used for tumors that
    cannot be totally removed, either because of the
    location of the tumors or because the liver is
    too diseased for the patient to withstand
    removing part of it.
  • Chemotherapy  Chemotherapy is a medication
    that is usually given intravenously or as a
    pill. It goes to the bloodstream and throughout
    the body to kill cancer cells. This is one of
    the big advantages of chemotherapy. If cancer
    cells have broken off from the tumor and are
    somewhere else inside the body, chemotherapy has
    the chance of finding those cells and killing
    them.
  • Radiation therapy  Another potential method of
    treating liver cancer is radiation therapy.
    The radiation comes in the form of high energy
    x-rays that are delivered to the patient only in
    the areas at highest risk for cancer. These
    x-rays are similar to those used for diagnostic
    x-rays, only of a much high energy. The high
    energy of x-rays in radiation therapy results in
    damage to the DNA of cells. Because cancer
    cells are not as good as normal, healthy cell at
    repairing DNA damage, radiation results in
    relatively more damage to the cancer cells than
    to normal cells.

Nonsurgical Treatments for Liver Cancer at World
Class Hospitals in India
  • Chemoembolization  Before Insertion of the tiny
    particles that block the blood flow an anticancer
    drug is injected into the artery. The drug stays
    in the liver for longer without blood flow, and
    thus the impact is more.
  • Radiofrequency Ablation  For inoperable liver
    tumors, radiofrequency ablation (RFA) offers a
    nonsurgical, localized treatment that kills the
    tumor cells with heat, while sparing the healthy
    liver tissue. Thus, this treatment is much easier
    on the patient than systemic therapy.
  • Cryosurgery  It is a treatment that uses an
    instrument to freeze and destroy abnormal tissue,
    such as cancerous cells. This type of treatment
    is also called Cryotherapy. The doctor may use
    ultrasound to guide the instrument.
  • Percutaneous Ethanol Injection  Percutaneous
    ethanol injection is a cancer treatment in which
    a small needle is used to inject ethanol
    (alcohol) directly into a tumor to kill cancer
    cells. The procedure may be done once or twice a
    week. Usually local anesthesia is used, but if
    the patient has many tumors in the liver, general
    anesthesia may be needed.
  • Hyperthermia Therapy  Hyperthermia therapy is a
    type of treatment in which body tissue is exposed
    to high temperatures to damage and kill cancer
    cells or to make cancer cells more sensitive to
    the effects of radiation and certain anticancer
    drugs. Because some cancer cells are more
    sensitive to heat than normal cells are, the
    cancer cells die and the tumor shrinks.
  • Biologic Therapy  Biologic therapy is a
    treatment that uses the patients immune system
    to fight cancer. Substances made by the body or
    made in a laboratory are used to boost, direct,
    or restore the bodys natural defenses against
    cancer. This type of cancer treatment is also
    called biotherapy or immunotherapy.
