What symptom does tumor have on liver
First, liver cancer, especially liver cancer, is one of the killers that seriously threaten health. However, patients often have certain misunderstandings in treatment, or are pessimistic and depressed. They think that liver cancer is an incurable disease, or they avoid medical treatment, thus delaying the best time for treatment and causing an irreparable situation.
Second: hemangioma, mainly refers to hepatic cavernous hemangioma. It is the most common benign tumor of the liver, accounting for 42 ~ 45% of the benign tumors of the liver. The disease can occur at any age, but often after middle age symptoms. Most of the hemangiomas were solitary, with a diameter of less than 4 cm, but some were as large as 30 cm. Most of the patients with tumor diameter less than 4cm had no symptoms, most of them were found by chance during abdominal B-ultrasound examination; about 40% of patients with tumor diameter more than 4cm had abdominal discomfort, hepatomegaly, loss of appetite, dyspepsia and other symptoms. The most dangerous complication of cavernous hemangioma of the liver is acute abdominal hemorrhage caused by rupture of the tumor, which often leads to death.
Third: patients are most concerned about how to distinguish liver cancer and hepatic hemangioma. B-ultrasound can find hepatic tumor, but it is almost impossible to distinguish liver cancer from hepatic hemangioma. The resolution of enhanced CT is about 92%%, which is the best choice to distinguish hepatic hemangioma from hepatic carcinoma. Surgical resection is the most effective method for the treatment of hepatic hemangioma. Partial hepatectomy or lobectomy can be performed according to the extent of the lesion. If the lesion is extensive and unresectable, hepatic artery ligation or hepatic artery embolization, or postoperative radiotherapy may be used.
matters needing attention
For unresectable liver cancer, we can use hepatic artery ligation, hepatic artery embolization, hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy, liquid nitrogen freezing, laser vaporization, microwave thermocoagulation and so on alone or in combination according to the specific situation, which has certain curative effect. Ligation of the hepatic artery, especially embolization of the hepatic artery, can reduce the size of the tumor, and some patients may have the chance of secondary resection.
