Risk Factors At the time of writing, no one knows its exact causes. However, many people with known risk factors for liver cancer do not develop the disease. These symptoms are not sure signs of liver cancer. When a cure or control of the disease is not possible, some patients and their doctors choose palliative therapy.
Also, the side-effects of treatment can make eating difficult. A liver transplant is an option only if the disease has not spread outside the liver and only if a suitable donated liver can be found. In these cases, surgery to remove the tumor is not possible because of cirrhosis (or other conditions that cause poor liver function), the location of the tumor within the liver, or other health problems. Most recurrences occur within the first 2 years of treatment. |
