What is Liver Cancer?
Liver cancer is a type of cancer that starts in the cells of the liver. It can be either primary, meaning it started in the liver, or secondary, meaning it has spread from another part of the body to the liver. The two most common forms of primary liver cancer are hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which starts in the main type of liver cell, and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), which starts in the cells that line the bile duct. It can also be a rare type called hepatoblastoma, which is more common in children under three years old. Liver cancer is relatively common in the Philippines primarily because many Filipinos suffer from cirrhosis of the liver, a major risk factor for liver cancer. Cirrhosis of the liver precedes 80%of all liver cancers; thus, any condition that predisposes to cirrhosis indirectly causes liver cancer.
