Can hepatocellular carcinoma be cured?

1. Hepatocellular carcinoma cannot be completely cured. It can only be treated to delay the disease, alleviate symptoms and prolong the patient's survival.

2. According to the classification of pathological tissue, hepatocellular carcinoma is a primary liver cancer with a high degree of malignancy. Once hepatocellular infection is discovered, it usually cannot be completely cured. It can only be treated in time to control the progression of the disease, reduce adverse reactions, and prolong the patient's survival.

3. If it is early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma, it is generally recommended to cure it as soon as possible, that is, to completely remove the tumor through surgery. If there is no metastasis or spread of cancer cells within 5 years after surgery, the patient's survival time is usually longer, and most patients can achieve clinical cure.

4. If it is mid-to-late stage hepatocellular carcinoma, lymph node cleaning and palliative surgery can be performed. Patients who miss surgery need to take radiotherapy and chemotherapy as soon as possible to suppress cells. Palliative radiotherapy can be used during radiotherapy, and chemotherapy needs to be selected according to one's own situation and sensitivity to drugs, such as carboplatin, cisplatin, etc. After hepatocellular carcinoma is discovered, a professional should be consulted as soon as possible and a personalized treatment plan should be selected according to the progression of the disease.
