Hepatic Cancer Surgery is a procedure to remove tumors from the liver, often used to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or metastatic liver cancer. Depending on the tumor’s size and location, surgery can involve a partial liver resection (removal of part of the liver) or a liver transplant.

In some cases, liver transplantation is recommended when the cancer is confined to the liver and the patient’s liver function is compromised. This procedure requires careful matching of the donor liver and extensive postoperative care to prevent organ rejection.

Postoperative care includes close monitoring of liver function, nutritional support, and management of immunosuppressive medications if a liver transplant is performed. Regular imaging studies are required to detect any recurrence of cancer.

Hepatic cancer surgery is an important treatment option for liver cancer patients, offering potential curative benefits and significantly improving survival rates, especially in cases where the cancer is localized.
