Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Hepatocellular Carcinoma is the most common form of liver cancer and most commonly occurs in people with liver disease, predominantly in people with chronic hepatitis B and C.

Symptoms usually don't appear in the early stages of the cancer. Symptoms that develop later include weight loss, upper abdominal pain or yellowing of the skin (jaundice).

Treatments include surgery, transplant, freezing or heating the cancer cells and chemotherapy.
