Symptoms of advanced liver cancer lung metastasis? Pay attention to these

What are the symptoms of lung metastasis in late-stage liver cancer? Although the incidence of liver cancer is relatively high, because it is relatively hidden at the beginning of the disease, many patients are unable to discover it and receive treatment in the first place, and they miss the best time for treatment. Lung metastasis is a manifestation of late-stage liver cancer. When it occurs, the patient will experience many uncomfortable symptoms.

Experts point out that when liver cancer patients have lung metastasis, they go to the hospital for chest X-ray examination, and they will find many multiple, round, high-density nodules on the X-ray film, and this will happen in both lungs of the patient. Experts point out that when liver cancer first starts, because the cancer nodules are relatively small in size and few in number, they mainly invade the alveoli around the lungs, so under normal circumstances, patients will not have particularly obvious symptoms such as coughing and hemoptysis. However, as the disease progresses, liver cancer will metastasize to the lungs. When it develops to this extent, the size of the nodules has increased a lot, and the number is also very large, so many patients with liver cancer lung metastasis will have symptoms such as coughing and shortness of breath, and sometimes accompanied by fever, weight loss, fatigue, etc. When the metastatic cancer nodules invade the pleura of patients, it is also likely to cause pleural effusion.

Therefore, when a liver cancer patient keeps coughing and blood is found in the sputum, it is important to pay attention, because this may mean that the liver cancer has metastasized to the lungs.

The above are the symptoms of liver cancer metastasis to the lungs. After reading the full text, everyone should have a correct understanding of this disease, detect it in time, and actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment. The harm caused by liver cancer metastasis to the lungs is very great, so in order to minimize the harm, patients must choose a safe and effective treatment plan.
